FCC Rolls Out Nutrition Labels for Internet Plans to Boost Transparency, But Full Compliance Lacking

New FCC rule requires internet providers to display "nutrition labels" showing monthly costs, typical speeds, fees, etc. Makes comparing plans easier.

Labels help give consumers power back against confusing internet packages. But not perfect; some companies not fully complying yet.

Find labels on providers' websites when checking availability. Click "broadband facts." Compare cable/fiber/satellite options.

Shortcomings Some missing full disclosures. Only for standalone internet plans. Not shown on monthly bills. Can't easily compare providers.

Overall a win for transparency and empowering consumers, though room for improvement. Celebrate progress while pushing for fuller compliance.
