Goverment about to take action on broadband advertising

Filed Under: , , ,

It looks like we might finally get some movement on broadband advertising in the UK. Ofcom, the telecoms watchdog, has made it clear that they consider many broadband adverts misleading, and they want to see changes next year.

This is great news, as far as it goes, but I can’t help noticing that they seem to be concerning themselves solely with line-speed, and ignoring the much larger issue of traffic-shaping and “acceptable-use policies.”
