I don't know if this is NN or not, but the concept is ancient. Even back in the dark ages of mobile, zero rating and associated rev share were very common.
Whether this is relevant to NN or not is for lawyers.
This is backwards. It's definitely a net neutrality issue since it concerns inequal access for customers to content on the Internet. Whether it's subject to current laws or regulation is a matter for the lawyers, but current laws and regulations at least in the US are a far cry from actual net neutrality. (If you want a good example of that, look to the Netherlands.) -- Niels.
