This is the best summary I could come up with:
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announced a proposal Tuesday to ban cable and satellite television early termination fees.
In a press release, the FCC said these fees may limit consumer choice and “may negatively impact competition for services in the marketplace.” The agency also said the fees often make cable and satellite subscribers pay for a whole billing cycle, even if they end the TV service early.
When companies charge customers early termination fees, it limits their freedom to choose the service they want,” FCC Chair Jessica Rosenworcel said in a press release.
“Companies shouldn’t lock you into services you don’t want with large fees.
The FCC also recently voted to bring back Obama-era net neutrality laws last month.
These rules give the commission more power to regulate the internet via restricting companies’ ability to enact harmful practices on consumers like throttling and paid prioritization.
