Comcast has some explaining to do about its Internet policies, thanks to a massive new data request from federal regulators looking into the cable giant’s deal to acquire Time Warner Cable.

It took Federal Communications Commission staff 29 pages to list the 93 questions and requests for data they want from Comcast for their review of the deal.

Seventeen of the questions or data requests in the FCC’s inquiry were related to Comcast’s use of data caps, traffic management, middle-mile Internet interconnection deals and network neutrality policies as well as data related to complaints from Netflix and Level 3 about Comcast.

The companies have until September 11 to provide the data to the agency.
