"Internet Providers Required to Display Broadband 'Nutrition Labels' for Consumer Transparency"

TL;DR Summary
Internet service providers are now required by the Federal Communications Commission to provide "nutrition" labels for broadband services, detailing monthly price, internet speed range, data limits, network management and privacy policies, customer support contacts, and additional charges. These labels aim to help consumers compare plans more easily and make informed decisions. President Biden referred to the move as an effort to eliminate junk fees, and the labels are a result of an October 2023 FCC rule. Some providers have already implemented the labels ahead of the federal deadline.
