The FCC's rules were an overreach and not in line with the FCC's charter.
Customer privacy rules belong to the FTC. If you have a problem, write them a letter. We don't need two separate govt entities doing the same job, growing the gov, wasting tax money and frustrating the businesses wondering who has the whip. Just reducing over-regulation, dont-cha-know.
My ISP upgraded their service two years ago with a big govt grant but didn't upgrade mine. Never even offered a reduced rate. It wasn't until my service quit entirely that I checked their website to get their tech support phone number and I noticed their new services and reduced rates. I'd been getting hosed all those years. Notify customers of upgrades? HA HA, not in rural USA.
