Because AT&T doesn't have confusing branding such as the whole 5Ge which is really just them catching up with 4G+ that everyone else already had but totally not to trick users into thinking they're getting 5G

Ikr tvs and ISPs, you can't believe a word of their marketing. I mean honestly everything else too, but if anyone was going to complain...

Would you like some cheese with that wine?

Edit: Hell, the article itself asked if they had sour grapes.

Sour grapes or does AT&T have a point? Maybe a bit of both?
