>Verizon's throttling was described in fire department emails beginning June 29 of this year, just weeks after the FCC's repeal of net neutrality rules took effect.

Does throttling in this manner violate network neutrality rules? The 25GB/mo cap is enforced in a way that is neutral to applications or users.



If they provide services that do not count against the 25GB/mo cap (e.g. Verizon's own video streaming service) while other competing services (e.g. Netflix) do, then probably, yes.

If not, then probably not, no.
