Re: [Marnew] endpoint consent

[Salvatore Loreto <[e-mail]>]

To answer Aaron question if we go on this path then BOTH  endpoints MUST consent IMHO
more or less in line with the Telefonica and ALU proposals at the Sigcomm workshop on middleboxes

However having explored this topic in the past
 I agree with what Jari says below

And I am not so sure is the right way to go!
It would be much better if we can work on a collaborative solution between CP and/or CDN and the Mobile Network

One challenge is of course that it is already difficult for the users (or even us experts) to understand all the exact things that are going on, so providing a useful control for the users even on bandwidth may not be easy.
Let alone more complex settings.

The other issue is that we should be careful about setting the ambition level.
Fine-grained quality of service treatment has not been successful in the Internet. What's the right ambition level, being able to specify detailed bandwidth consumption rules? Or the ability to differentiate interactive from the non-interactive within one user? The more coarse grained you make this, the more likely it is that it can be used by applications and understood by users.
