T-mobile won't give you the BingOn allowance for this. If they lose in court, you will still need to pay for this and for videos.

- untog 11y agoYes, I know. But my point is why should I penalized as a "remote desktop user", when a "video user" is not?
- toomuchtodo 11y agoYou're not being penalized. You're simply not being granted an advantage of zero rated traffic because you're using network traffic (an encrypted remote desktop session) that can't be managed in the same way video traffic can be. Not all bits are created equally.
- untog 11y agoYou're not being penalized. You're simply not being granted an advantage But is there a meaningful difference there? Not all bits are created equally. That notion is literally the core of the Net Neutrality debate. --- EDIT: I replied to another post which someone deleted before I could submit. So an elaboration on my point above: At the end of the day, it's all marketing. Remote desktop being the "standard rate" and Video being free isn't meaningfully different from Video being the "standard rate" and remote desktop being "standard rate * 1.5". It's just how it's being sold to you.

- bobby_9x 11y agoThis is like saying: I make lots of money, why am I penalized because I can't receive welfare? I suppose we can fight the technicalities of net neutrality, but it will only mean you will pay more money, not less.
