FCC vs Verizon's Limited Tethering (Score 1)

The FCC gave Verizon a smackdown in 2012 ( http://www.pcmag.com/article2/... ) when they were trying to charge people $20 to add hotspot/tethering to their plan even though they already paid for data and could use free tethering apps. The FCC stated that they are not allowed to restrict access to the service(data) by either blocking the apps from working(which I have personally experienced during this time on a verizon Xperia Play) or by charging for access to use hotspot(which verizon had conveniently supplied their own app for). How is restricting the speed of tethered devices any different of a violation? It's your data that you pay for your high speed access to. How you use that data is up to you NOT your service provider. Of course T-Mobile has become the pioneer in dancing on the legal line with the FCC for Net Neutrality but no one seems to care about that either.
