- harikb 6y agoFrom fcc.gov site > Q: Does the FCC regulate the rates charged by Internet Service Providers (ISPs)? > A: No. ISPs are considered "enhanced service providers" under FCC rules. The FCC does not regulate the rates that enhanced service providers charge to their subscribers. Moreover, even if they could, we would need leadership at the top of FCC who would care about consumers. Right now, Mr Pai is available to dance for the highest bidder [1] [1] https://www.reuters.com/article/us-tribune-media-m-a-sinclair-ma/house-democrats-seek-probe-of-fcc-chairmans-treatment-of-sinclair-idUSKBN1DD2HP https://www.reuters.com/article/us-tribune-media-m-a-sinclai...
