A $60 Million Fine Won't Stop AT&T From Throttling ‘Unlimited’ Data Plans

Description: The Federal Trade Commission announced today that AT&T has agreed to pay $60 million in a settlement that centers around secretly throttled unlimited plans in 2011. You might assume the fine has something to do with the broadband industry’s liberal use of the word “unlimited,” given that AT&T slowed connections to a crawl once customers had used a certain amount of data. Unfortunately, you’d be wrong.
