WASHINGTON: The Obama administration unveiled new labels for broadband and mobile Internet service, aimed at helping the nation's web users make price and service comparisons. 

The labels from the US Federal Communications Commission are similar to federally required nutrition labels on nearly all US foods or information on credit card billing statements and will include disclosures of all fees and add-on charges and service speed and reliability.
