Why, when I lookup my address, do I not see my regional cable internet provider? Yet, when I search that provider, their service availability is shown as 100% in the hexagon covering our home.

While I think I understand that the intention of this map is to document Telecom-asserted coverage such that users can contest inaccuracies, a beneficial flip-side (for me) is to ensure that my regional ISP is accurately represented.

I'll take a non-Comcast/Verizon/National ISP over a National any day of the week. I want their coverage to be accurately documented.

Because there's a data error on the map, and unfortunately you can only submit negative disputes, not positive ones.
