Your Internet isn’t getting any faster, but the government might soon call it ‘high-speed’ anyway

Is the government doing a good enough job getting Internet access to the people?

Until recently, the government’s own assessment was no — things could be better for many Americans fed up with slow service, high prices or a lack of competition. But a looming change in the way officials define Internet service may soon prompt the Federal Communications Commission to change its mind and say that, in fact, it looks like consumers are doing just fine, thank you very much.
