As we've got full flexibility to customize the data acquisition in terms
of splitting the requests into smaller ones, maybe limit to x requests
per y time, it appears to be easiest to just ask what the preferred mode
is.
It is even possible to create static files upstream and download them
instead, if that is what they prefer.

Did anybody talk to Metabroadcast what they'd prefer?

Mobile security can be enabling, not merely restricting. Employees who
bring their own devices (BYOD) to work are irked by the imposition of MDM

apps on BYO-devices by containerizing them, leaving personal data untouched!
