It’s already like this in many countries in Asia. They offer data pacakages that are 50GB (for example) for social media data , and only 1GB for regular internet

In fairness, social media and streaming are absolute data hogs. I could get by very easily with 1GB for the old school message board internet of the early '00s.
Yes, but only the social media that paid to be included in the plan in the first place. That just continues monopolies.

my former ukrainian data plan had only 100mb per day on internet, but 10gb on Youtube and unlimited social media (e.g. facebook and reddit + messenger apps like viber, signal and telegram)
to be fair, its not the norm here and it was cheap af back when i was using it (around 1-2$/mo)
