bandwidths that are going to be more sustainable.  It's definitely driven by
3GPP (LTE) operators so far.   I give it a 40% chance of getting usefully
deployed before the need is overtaken by other events.
The promise is that 3GPP operators won't have to do expensive DPI anymore.

I am not a MNO but I think, given pervasive encryption, at this point it is less deep packet inspection and just header inspection. Probably the rule is something like, if dest IP/FQDN = YouTube, then assign RAN priority X and max bitrate Y.
