[LUG] Fwd: UK 'misled' on broadband speeds

[Julian Hall <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 'Britons are not getting the broadband services they are being sold, 
suggests a government report.  Ofcom's analysis of broadband speeds in 
the UK shows that, for some services, 97% of consumers do not get the 
advertised speed.'

The phrase 'tell me something I don't know' springs to mind.  The real 
question is how many of these identical reports are we going to see 
before they actually DO something about this?  In any other industry, 
e.g. gas/electric suppliers the company(ies) would have been fined for 
misselling their products months, if not years ago.
