True.

IMHO that's not the right question to ask. It is pretty clear to me
that, technically, TURN does indeed have the potential to solve the
problem identified by Karl. (I understand the problem to be: "ISP wants
to provide enhanced QoS to WebRTC.")

I have two questions in my mind:

a) Is this a real problem that is worth fixing?
b) Is TURN the best, most appropriate solution?
