Oddly, the UK does have net neutrality and you can get those app-specific data bundles in addition to universal access.

While the EU does have net neutrality, there are loop-holes for some forms of zero-rating (which is basically the same bullshit, just jumping through a few hoops).

Do NN proponents really believe that they could prevent the loopholes here?
The loopholes were deliberately built in during the drafting of the law, the European Council forced the Parliament to include them. It was widely reported on at the time.
