Comcast, AT&T try to kill new requirements to be transparent about their shitty pricing::The 2021 infrastructure bill did some very good things for broadband. Not only did it include a massive, $42 billion investment in broadband deployment and require better mapping, it demanded that the FCC impose a new “nutrition label for broadband,” requiring that ISPs be transparent about all of the weird restrictions, caps, fees, and limitations…
I was highlighing the absurdity of the fee structure.
To expand on what I said in my second comment, the tax was probably created by the government to serve a relevant purpose that I don’t know about. I trust that there is a reason for the tax. The fact that it was being applied inappropriately to customers was the absurd part. It’s like an electric vehicle being taxed for highway tailpipe emissions.
Okay, I understand better now; thank you for clarifying :)
