FCC wants to know if it's too modest about broadband, gives chance to fight caps and slow speeds

A common complaint with the FCC's National Broadband Plan is its conservative definition of the broadband in question: many would argue that the 4Mbps baseline is an anachronism in an era of 4G, FiOS and Google Fiber. If you've ever wanted the FCC to up the ante, now's your chance.

Ever been burnt by a too-low bandwidth cap.
