"Demystifying Internet Service 'Nutrition Labels': A Consumer's Guide"

The Federal Communications Commission has mandated that internet service providers must now provide standardized "nutrition labels" for their services, similar to the nutrition labels on packaged food. These labels include information such as monthly cost, internet speeds, and extra fees. Consumers can find these labels on the providers' websites by entering their address. However, not all labels are currently compliant, and some information may be incomplete. While there are shortcomings, such as the labels only applying to internet service and not bundled packages, they are still considered a win for consumer transparency and a step in the right direction for empowering consumers with more information about their internet service options.
