NN is also an issue on other countries. ImI'm from mexicoMexico, and short story iI once attended a TELCEL conference (one of the big 3 cellphone carriers here). They where promoting the start of their new *unlimited data package. I already knew back then of the "scheme" behind this cause of the caps used by USA companies.

I asked if there was going to be able to download all that iI wanted at a 3G speed? The speaker answered that iI should be able to download files at a 3G speed.

Then iI made another question. Would iI be able to go download a 10 gbGB file at 3G, that there was no going to be any cap or throttle to it?

The answer was that once iI hit 1gb1GB (was around 2014) iI would get a throttle on my download speed and iI would have to pay for the extra mbsMBs.

I made a last remark that it would only look unlimited if we only used it to download text data.

I was not allowed to ask another question.

It was false advertisement then and it still a common practice around carriers when they advertise under unlimited data (they always put the cap/throttling on small letters) but they rarely do so now cause we all know the catch now.

In Mexico we have not reached NN protection, something that now might never happen causebecause we always tend to copy USA laws. Want to taste what non NN looks like, just jump the border and connect to a public hot spot.
