Let me get this right... they're lobbying their way out to not even list what they're charging for?

I hope FCC doubles down without lube.

Yeah how does that even work? Don't they have to list what they sell for their accounting? Isn't it tax evasion or fraud if they don't keep track of everything?

It's about transparency to the customer at point of sale. It's like nutrition facts for your internet, literally.

Probably means an itemized fee list instead of a generic one that has it all added together and just shows up as "fees" on the bill
