your assumption is that all ISPs will act the same
since all ISPs will act the same, why haven't all ISPs restricted the use of google wallet?
AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile partnered for the ISIS payment system, and all three blocked Google Wallet at one point. I think AT&T may have backed off since (whether due to public outcry or legal action, I'm not sure), and I'm not sure about the other two. What I'm saying is that every carrier that had their own offering made the same exact move of blocking a competing product, simply because they could. This is a fundamental, smart, and effective business tactic, as long as it's legal. It is also anti-competitive and bad for consumers.

but not every carrier did, is what you ignore
your arguments are all built on this assumption that ISPs will work together and forget competition...while ATT, Verizon, and T-Mobile did engage in this, Sprint and other carriers didn't.
