[governance] Does anyone have further information or clarification on this?

It is also routinely used to protect an isps users against malicious network threats

So why demonize a tool rather than regulate its usage and restrict it to applications that are respectful of user privacy?

It's no secret that DPI is used routinely by major operators for traffic
management, a prelude to service differentiation.

They only need identifying packet type (text, phone, image, video, etc),
unless more is required by national laws.

It's also a constituent of mass surveillance systems, first developed in
2002 by ATT and Boeing/Narus for NSA. One reaps what one sawed.
