The FCC is looking into the impact of broadband data caps and why they still exist
The Federal Communications Commission is officially looking into broadband data caps and their impact on consumers. On Tuesday, the FCC approved a notice of inquiry to examine whether data caps harm consumers and competition, as well as why data caps persist “despite increased broadband needs” and the “technical ability to offer unlimited data plans,” as spotted earlier by Engadget.
“For most people in the United States, rationing their internet usage would be unthinkable and impractical,” FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel said in the press release. “Restricting consumers’ data can cut off small businesses from their customers, slap fees on low-income families, and prevent people with disabilities from using the tools they rely on to communicate.”
