Broadband India Forum warns application-specific network slicing could breach net neutrality
The Broadband India Forum (BIF) warned that application-specific network slicing could breach net neutrality principles in its September 15 submission to the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI). BIF argued that prioritizing certain apps could lead to content discrimination and paid prioritization. It emphasized that while network slicing is beneficial for 5G, it must be implemented transparently and non-discriminatorily to align with net neutrality rules.
