Federal Communications Commission
- "Nutrition facts" style labels for internet plans are finally a reality.
- As of Wednesday, the FCC now requires internet providers to break down costs and services for customers.
- The FCC says the move should encourage competition and help consumers take charge of their services.
If you've ever had trouble figuring out exactly what fees your internet provider is charging you and what internet speed you're actually getting, the FCC has your back.
The Federal Communications Commission is now requiring internet providers to give customers a breakdown of all the costs, fees, and speeds associated with their plan in a simple "nutrition facts" format, just like you might see on the back of a bag of chips.
