also, it's not an "oversight". we're just literally not talking about net neutrality here and that's what I'm saying. this isn't a net neutrality problem lol

And up until a few months ago Net Neutrality was a dead issue in America, and could be again, because it isn't a law, it's an FCC rule. If people report this to the FCC, there's definitely a chance that they could look at this and amend NN rules to account for it. They can literally change it anytime they want.

Fine, I got it wrong. Happy? I still think its a fucking joke that it wouldn't apply in this instance, because it literally involves them degrading service for certain users over others.
