Punching through The Great Firewall of T-Mobile:
T-Mobile UK are moving towards a mobile network which works (technically) in a very similar manner to the Great Firewall of China.

Most people don’t run their own server. If you don’t, then you’re pretty screwed.
On a technical level, what T-Mobile is doing is pretty cool (assuming it is, in fact, the same techniques as China is using to attack TOR of late) but is otherwise pure evil. T-Mobile’s behaviours are a clear indication of why strong network neutrality rules are absolutely necessary: without regulations and punishments carriers will happily screw their customers if it might save, or make, the carriers a buck.
