| “We write to express our concern that mobile carriers may be inappropriately throttling and prioritizing internet traffic from common mobile apps without the knowledge of their customers,” wrote Sens. Edward Markey, D-Mass., Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., and Ron Wyden, D-Ore., in their letter addressed to the CEOs of AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile and Sprint. The senators’ full letter is available here. “All online traffic should be treated equally, and internet service providers should not discriminate against particular content or applications for competitive advantage purposes or otherwise.”The Wireless industry is an ever-changing world where big ideas come along daily.

As noted by Ars Technica, AT&T disputed the allegations at the heart of the issue, and referred the topic to a CTIA blog post by the association’s CTO posted last month: “In order to manage networks, providers optimize the bandwidth available for a video so that your smartphone gets DVD quality without downloading excess data,” wrote CTIA’s Tom Sawanobori. “The Wehe app compares the data speeds that consumers experience with and without that content provider metadata. If the Wehe app detects a difference in speed, it registers this as ‘differentiation’ and implies this is a violation of ‘net neutrality.’ What the Wehe app is really detecting is basic wireless network management and operators delivering the service consumers choose.Every wireless network operator works to manage traffic to some degree, and in recent years the nation’s top wireless providers have implemented throttling specific to video designed to limit the amount of data traveling over their networks. Most operators now offer a variety of unlimited data pricing plans that handle that throttling differently based on how much customers pay per month. -- ???????? | |||
