Re: Network Tokens and HBH option

Is this APN6 w/ an added authentication element?

I maybe have not fully digested everything, but there seems to me to
be some cause for concern about abuse.  For example, what's to keep an
enormous incumbent mobile operator from mandating the use of this on
devices permitted to attach to their network?  Seems like there could
be concerning aspects for users/OSes that are hidden behind the
promise of things like zero rating.
