It looks to me like the format changed somewhat from the last version we saw 
from the committee, so be sure to get the latest version from the FCC Order.  
Check the WISPA list for Steve Coran’s posts on this topic.  This is a “safe 
harbor” template meaning it is optional but if you use it, at least you won’t 
get fined for the format.  It does not provide safe harbor for the content.

Here is another article that is somewhat critical of the templates:

I have also seen articles comment along the lines of wouldn’t it have been 
easier to just require ISPs to advertise their actual prices including all 
fees, similar to airline tickets.

Subject: [AFMUG] FCC wants "nutrition labels" for broadband


This is, sadly, on topic. 

The FCC has proposed something akin to "nutrition labels" for broadband that 
will "clearly" show such things as speed, caps, and hidden fees. This is an ars 
technica article about the proposal:
