A new CRTC ruling also allows Bell to pass along more of its usage costs to independent ISPs that purchase its services, giving them less incentive to limit internet speeds.
Instead of throttling, Bell is adopting a solution that many US ISPs already use: managing bandwidth by imposing usage caps and charging for overages. The CRTC chairman has endorsed this method, saying that traffic management "should be done through transparent, economic means." This may be a victory for net neutrality, but it must feel a little hollow to those Bell subscribers paying $33.95 for 2GB of monthly usage.
