That's besides the point. Don't offer 'unlimited'
Internet if its not limited and your are hoodwinking users. In fact this issue goes beyond net neutrality to ethical business practices.
A few months ago there was the same discussion on the list and I'm gratified to note that some Service Providers have stopped this habit. Just offer bundles and let us make an informed choice. What is not right though is sell bundles and then throttle bandwidth through some new terminology known as 'Fair Use'.
This is something that the Regulator should definitely look into.

How 'neutral' is Kenya's mobile service providers networks for accessing the
Net? There has been cases where some providers have discontinued 'Unlimited
Internet' access offers due to the 'violation' of the terms under which
these offers were made in the first place. Does CCK have any policies in
regard to net neutrality for ISPs and MSPs alike in Kenya?
Some background information about network neutrality, you can read this
