Yes.  And I bet a lot of WISPs comply by using some copy-pasta from someone else's website and just change the name.  Big providers will comply by having the disclosure /somewhere/ on their website but buried under a nest of links that nobody will follow.

Most consumers will be too lazy to find these factual disclosures, and the ones that do seek them will have trouble finding them, and the ones that find something will find boiler-plate wishy washy legalese saying "I'll manage my network both neutrally and also however I want to".

    I think in my 15 years here, maybe two customers read the terms of

        critical information that must be available when selecting

        previously stated, clear disclosures help consumers make
        well-informed choices about their purchase and use of

        If you were comparing ISPs based on their disclosures and the
        one you were looking at didn't have one, wouldn't you just
        move onto the next provider? If they are the only provider
        available, would it really matter then?
