Alright, then this is *really* a friggin' crazy net neutrality issue. Or they have it in their terms of use, then it's just that we have no right to complain because we don't pay for the service.
In other words, this is a problem that can most probably not be fixed (by a user) in a technical way. (Awesome, Google, just awesome!) -- Or just not fixed when sticking to XMPP? I also see that Empathy is enabling and disabling the Voice, Video, Send File options on a user also based on the presence status (Available, Away), is that plausible?
