There is just so much I want to make sarcastic comments about, but I worry 
about offending future potential employers (all of them).

Description:
FCC Takes Steps To Enforce Quality Standards For Rural Broadband Networks 
and Also Provides Additional Flexibility to Reduce Burden on Companies


[...]

In response to Petitions for Reconsideration and Applications for Review 
of an earlier bureau- level Performance Measure Order, the FCC today 
maintained the existing requirement that carriers conduct quarterly speed 
and latency tests between specified numbers of active subscribers’ homes 
and the Internet, and made targeted modifications to the testing 
procedures, including:

- Modifying the schedule for commencing testing by basing it on the 
deployment obligations specific to each Connect America Fund support 
mechanism;

- Implementing a new pre-testing period that will allow carriers to 
become familiar with testing procedures without facing a loss of support 
for failure to meet the requirements;

- Allowing greater flexibility to carriers in identifying which customer 
locations should be tested and selecting the endpoints for testing 
broadband connections.
