Would've been better if it was 4G E. I've had many people ask me about it both on Quora and real life if they have 5G and I've told them no. It's false advertising for tech that isn't ready yet

The FCC and its head Pai are doing everything telecom companies want it to do to make more cash from people. The whole Net Neutrality debacle has already proven that.
US Telcos have posted fake and misleading information all over the place. Yet the FCC did nothing. But that's just the tip of the iceberg
The Register has a ton of information on the matter if you want to understand it better. Here's a link to a few more articles on the matter. Warning, facepalms ahead:

(Disregard the co.uk. The Register is also established in US)

Whackcar, 23 Apr 2019Thank you, Walter. You're a gentleman. No prob. Lemme guess your age now. You talk with experience and with a level of maturity. So you're probably in between the ages of 20 and 30.

Well if i were their customer i would send them to the courts for missleading and false information and statement given by their networks which could lead into many mistakes and errors.
Tearing them from money same way like they tearing their customers with wrong advertising and information.

Here's why AT&T are claiming that 3G+ is 4G just by counting numerically
If 3G+ is 4G then 4G is already 5G and 5G proper and legal is or should be 6G
When scam artists do things like this, Police, that some CEO does similar beggars belief
Let's hope a class action follows.

Why are their government so incompetent? Or is it corruption? Must the people do everything, and pay taxes?

Basically, the same as 3Gplus aka H+ signal. Better than 3G but not quite 4G. They doing the same thing for 5G. Lame.

I'm just waiting for an actual consumer to start a class action lawsuit so AT&T would stop using a misleading leading.

Lawsuit reason invoked: Misleading advertising harming customers.
Outcome: Amicable settlement.
I see that the problem raised that was the reason behind the lawsuit has been ignored. Great lawsuit guys. And outstanding settlement

I wonder how much they paid for the "settlement". These companies don't give a F about the customers. All they care about is money.
It's rather discomforting to know that these companies can get away with false advertisements without any repercussions whatsoever.

AT&T is fake. At marketing. It's 4G plus or 4G+.
