Comcast Corp. may have to provide television programs to online competitors and wouldn’t be allowed to interfere with subscribers’ Web traffic to satisfy regulators vetting its planned purchase of NBC Universal, people familiar with the deal said.

The requirements were among those proposed by Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski on Dec. 23, three agency officials in Washington said in interviews. They declined to be identified because the conditions haven’t been made public.
