This feels more like something I’d expect to come from the FTC than the FCC; isn’t the FTC pushing new rules against hidden fees?

It could be both, but FCC has governance over broadcast and cable TV industry primarily. Either way, this is a much needed improvement in transparency and win over deceptive marketing practices.

I’d just be a little concerned that if the cable companies can find the right judge they’ll get it blocked for that reason
