It's more the sort of thing that is kept internal.Īnd then of course there's the fact that this would be playing out for every telco relative to every streaming service.Īt that point everyone would just throw their hands up in the air and make a global standard for cooperative ratelimiting, and we'd all know about it. I don't really see telcos going to all the streaming services and working out agreements given this sort of status quo/sentiment. It isn't a 'pedal to the floor' sort of subject, but more of a continuous optimization concern.
This functionality isn't a first-class user-facing 'generate piles of money'-center it describes limitations and conservatism and risk balance. Practically speaking, I see this sort of thing as balancingġ) total network saturation/hard capacity limitsĢ) encouraging user base to use more data up to thresholds in (1)ģ) customer experience (wrt data overages) The team(s) in charge of implementing this functionality likely don't have the requisite high level of lateral coordination necessary to facilitate agreements with all the major streaming services. IMHO, I find this hard to believe myself. > Do you have a reference/proof for the first paragraph about agreements? I can only echo the sole comment under that answer:
