I predict the ISPs will eliminate the "up to" wording from the agreements if this comes to pass.
However, in order to protect themselves, they wil probably implement caps on the lines to create lower-than-average speeds that they will be SURE of being able to guarantee.
If they don't, then I will definitely be one of the first in line with the "OMG I WILL SUE!!!!111eleventy-one!" asking for a few thousand dollars in reparation for the 'damages' I have incurred. *snicker* It'll be a perfect opportunity for a few easy grand. |

The classic American response is "I don't care who gets screwed, Jack, so long as I get my money."
Should the telcos be so foolish, I will be more than happy to part them of their foolishly-gained wealth in a more-than-legal fashion. |

Instead of them talking about the few people that DON'T get their speeds, maybe they should do a study to see how many people DO get their speeds...
I GUARANTEE anyone that if they did, the small percentage would be viewed as "in acceptable limits" of typical operating issues and simply require the operator to ensure that the up to speeds can in fact be reached.. nothing more.
There are FAR more people getting their up to speeds than not.
