"T-Mobile's Binge On is aptly named -- it feels good in the
short-term but harms consumers in the long run," says Barbara
van Schewick, the net neutrality expert and law professor who
authored the Stanford study. "The program limits user choice,
distorts competition, stifles innovation, and harms free speech
on the Internet. If more ISPs offer similar programs, these
harms will only grow worse.
