This is a blatant self promotion of the latest newsletter from my site. If that’s not allowed, I’ll stop, but I wanted to see if there is any interest in discussing the main topic in today’s newsletter.

It's not directly against the rules, and I'm happy to see what the general sentiment is for people in this community. In my view if you're participating in other ways (not just posting links to your site - which would for me be crossing the line into spam), the volume isn't too high compared to other posts, and you're clear that it's your own site (which you have made clear), then I don't have a problem with it.

Skinny was the only broadband service provider with a positive NPS, it led the pack by a wide margin with a score of +18. The next best was Contact Energy with a score of 0.

Haha wow, we really don't like our broadband providers. I think a huge negative shift I've seen in the past few years is the move to have every plan slightly different from competitors so you can't directly compare them. Having Spark buy out all the good ISPs is also annoying.

A new set of rules drawn up by the Commerce Commission mean that carriers have one year to standardise the key components of their coverage maps to make them more comparable

Maybe I missed it, but something not clear to me from the article is whether these rules are a proposal or if the rules have been set with specific dates to meet?
