[kictanet] ISP Advertising Standards: Open Letter to CCK

[Areba Collins [ @BrainiacKE ® ]]

Hello listers,
Im following this from a discussion in the other list from one Kelvin, his
assertions were:

I think we need to as a group write a couple of recommendations for the CCK
> to rein in ISPs especially how they advertise. This could cover aspects

>    - Proper disclosure to customers on speeds i.e should Orange advertise
>    21mbps and get away with it
>    - Outline whether its shared
>    - Provide figures for the FUP
>    - Disclose whether or not inernet is unlimited
>
> There are some things you wouldnt get away with the FCC in the US .

> What are your thoughts ?

I need to hear what CCK has to say about this, I would very much preffer
ISP companies to give full disclosure of what they are selling , using a
standardized nomenclature. Could someone please advise if this is
enforceable?

Regards,
