Wireless provider MetroPCS has joined Verizon in filing a lawsuit against the FCC and its new net neutrality rules. The mobile phone service provider has been the receiving end of net neutrality violation complaints from both users and advocacy groups that are upset over its 4G tiered pricing scheme introduced earlier this month. An Ars Technica report details why MetroPCS has joined Verizon in this battle: because they want to charge consumers for the data they consume. For evidence of that, here is the various plans it offers customers:
$40 plan with unlimited talk, texting, web browsing, and YouTube access.
$50 plan everything from the $40 plan plus international and premium text messaging, access to the MetroNavigator GPS directional service, the ScreenIT caller ID application, mobile instant messaging, access to corporate e-mail, 1GB of additional data access, and the MetroSTUDIO video service.
