I wonder why he wouldn’t try to appeal to the FCC based on the Carterfone precedent. Charging a fee for use of a device which is 100% compatible with the network sounds exactly like when AT&T used to charge people to rent their phones and declined to allow third party equipment because of compatibility reasons. I know Pai doesn’t care about consumers either way, but this seems to be asking for a lawsuit that could be very fun to watch.
