The FCC's final text of the net neutrality order eliminates the possibility of 'fast lanes' using new technology like 5G network slicing to favor certain applications, ensuring all internet traffic is treated equally.
While telcos are prohibited from slowing down user connections under the new rules, offering paid boosts to specific applications could achieve similar discriminatory effects.
The Electronic Frontier Foundation highlighted the concern that giving preference through 'fast lanes' or 5G slices, regardless of speeding up or slowing down, ultimately leads to unequal treatment of internet services.
