> ISPs object to a portion of the FCC order that says, "providers must list all recurring monthly fees" including "all charges that providers impose at their discretion, i.e., charges not mandated by a government." The five trade groups complain that this would require ISPs "to display the pass-through of fees imposed by federal, state, or local government agencies on the consumer broadband label."
OK, so their problem is solely with pass-through 1:1 fees from local governments, and the ISPs totally agree that there's no problem showing their own fees that aren't one-to-one pass-through amounts, right?... Riiiight?
> Comcast said the non-mandatory fees also include pass-through of state and local government fees.
Sounds like they're choosing to mix fees [are / aren't] their fault together, and then whining that it's "unfair" to make them list any of them.
