I'm reading this as a difference between US and European style laws. It's my observation that Europe creates tighter legal frameworks with fewer loopholes. The US always seems to target specific bad behaviors and then acts surprised when corporations exploit the swiss cheese loopholes.
Previously disagreeable behaviors suddenly look acceptable because they were not specifically made banned when new legislation was passed. By allowing zero rating, ISP's could craft plans where you get "packages" of sites and then anything not under a subscription falls into a more austere X bytes at S speed bucket. Yes, they're doing that yet but such a thing could happen by not specifically stopping it in advance.
