I think AT&T should be fined (or be the target of class action lawsuit) for constantly lying to customers/future customers... the most common example being lying about u-verse being fiber-optic going to their customer's homes (while it only goes to a central box in the neighborhood).

And that doesn't even matter since no U-Verse internet speed even comes close to what a true fiber connection could carry (1Gbps+). In my area, the fastest U-Verse internet offered is 18Mbps down, so fiber or not, it's irrelevant.
I think that it is relevant even if the maximum offered speed by AT&T doesn't reach the full bandwidth that fiber optic could provide (one example is ping might be a lot lower on fiber optic, or customers think that they have the latest technology, or that costs should be lower with fiber optic, etc..., but the main one is lies, why lie if it doesn't matter)
