How about stop including all these bells and whistles in the plans and just offer them for reasonable prices?

What does T-Mobile get as part of this partnership from an ads and data standpoint?

I'd be surprised if there weren't something they were getting out of this that tied into their own ad solutions.

It doesn't have to be so evil. They might have increased peering and on-premise caching that decreases costs for TMobile users.

I'm sure the bill is a few bucks higher too.
