WINNINGS: An unemployed truck driver and student won $850 after taking ATT to small claims court when it started slowing down data service for his iPhone.
RULING: A California judge says it wasn’t fair for the company to purposely slow down his iPhone, when it had sold him an “unlimited data” plan.
JUST THE BEGINNING: ATT has some 17 million customers with “unlimited data” plans who can be subject to throttling. ATT forbids them from consolidating their claims into a class action or taking them to a jury trial. That leaves small claims actions and arbitration.
