    Really hope this bullshit doesn’t come to MNVOs too like ID Mobile.

      “Three” or “Three UK” is a mobile carrier. Does that help?

        Somewhat. How would removing paramount+ bundling risk a data cap?

        Edit: just read the first paragraph of the article. That’s a… bad way to phrase that. It’s better “removing paramount+ from your account also adds a 100mbps limit.”

          To elaborate more on this for those not reading the article. New customers already have the data cap and need a £4 add-on to remove. Removing Paramount+ from your plan is essentially akin to changing your contract, so you get the new terms.

          To be clear, I don’t like it, but what initially seemed like some sort of shady deal between Paramount Skydance and Three UK, is actually just telecoms being telecoms. Paramount Skydance can still suck it though.

            I was only commenting on the content of the headline. The content of the article is literally meaningless when analyzing a headline.
