Re: Interesting idea but....

I can't see it coming into practice, as the minute the speeds dip people will be calling in like crazy for refunds etc.
What if you weren't eligible for a refund based on the speed reports? What if it were just used as a "truth in advertising" reality check?

In otherwords, an ISP couldn't advertise, say, 16MB, if the PUC report showed the network speed was limited to 10MB.
