This is so dumb, how could anyone at the FCC even humor such a request?

"Please help us, we overcomplicated billing and don't want to explain it to anyone"

I look into my crystal ball and foresee new fees, no later than 4 cpu clock-cycles after the kill of the requirement.

"FCC will kill requirements for isps to list all fees so that they can continue to add fees"

This title is something that doesn't make sense said in a way that makes it look logical. If they can't manage their fees those fees shouldn't exist. But that's not really why this requirement it's going away, it's because they were bribed.

I won't say who, but I used to work for a large telco. Seeing their charges, it was x plan with y equipment fee. I have had two other ISPs in the past 2 years, one of which was Comcast. I had x plan with no equipment fee (I just bought a cable modem, cause fuck leaving my router even slightly exposed). What fucking companies came up with these other bs fees? Or are we talking phones? Cause yeah, that's all kinds of fee fuckery

That just means the FCC will stop requiring it though. A class action can still beat them into submission. The lawyers benefit most from this but it still gets the job done.

Find the place with the highest fee, roll it into the base price that you offer nationwide. Problem solved. In the place where it's exactly as high as that, you won't make any profit. Anywhere it's lower than that, you will make a profit.

Just use the competition that doesn't do this.
