this is important. The billing style of large ISPs is set up to confuse consumers into thinking parts of their bill are actually just taxes when in fact they are fees. This gimmick needs to stop.<p>I once argued with AT&amp;T when they raised my bill by issuing a fee (which violated the contract and meant I wasn&#x27;t responsible for an ETF if I canceled). The CSR was convinced it was a tax, their manager also convinced it was a tax that they had nothing to do with. I kept kept saying over and over that private companies cannot levy a tax. I swear nobody understood this. This speaks to how successful these large companies have been at confusing everyone with their billing practices.
