The FCC is probably doing this because US providers generally don't
release actual bandwidth, speeds or latency numbers their consumer
customers get. Advertised numbers often don't mean anything. If
providers want to release better data, it might help the FCC understand
the current environment.
Some US providers have published data for their business customer
connections and backbones.
