TL;DR Summary

Starting today, US home Internet and mobile broadband providers are required to display consumer labels with information on prices, speeds, and data allowances, as mandated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The labels must include details such as monthly price, speed, data caps, and additional fees, and must be displayed prominently at the point of sale. Despite initial industry complaints, major ISPs like Comcast, AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and Charter Spectrum are complying with the new rules, which aim to provide consumers with transparent and easily comparable information about broadband services.
