Playing the devil's advocate here - Don't all big media companies rely on some form of CDN providers who themselves have some form of deals and agreements with ISPs or Internet exchange. Example - Netflix in India:

In which case how does this law change anything? And what effect this might have on CDN providers?




No, no, no.

CDN is different than throttling your Internet.

A CDN is like having a local power generator in your neighborhood, throttling your Internet is like charging your house more for electricity, because the electrical company prefers your neighbor.
