I really like this idea, but I can't tell whether I failed the test, I passed the test, or the article-selection for this test was bad.
Which is the most appropriate result?
(To reiterate, though, I think this idea is an awesome one.)
Edit: I also don't think the article failed to give information on what the reason behind said definition-changing was:
Edit 2: Now THIS article doesn't emphasize the point that it's purely a matter of definition: http://arstechnica.com/business/2015/01/tons-of-att-and-verizon-customers-may-no-longer-have-broadband-tomorrow/ The article in the OP feels like "We've changed the definition of broadband to increase broadband access." The above-linked article feels like "THEY'RE TAKING AWAY OUR BROADBAND!!!" Does this seem like a reasonable differentiation, or am I being biased?
