WSJ ad to complain about AT&T

AT&T customer since 1960 buys WSJ print ad to complain of slow speeds

"We need to keep up with current technology and have looked to AT&T to supply us with fast Internet service," Epstein wrote in the open letter to AT&T's CEO. "Yet, although AT&T is advertising speeds up to 100Mbps for other neighborhoods, the fastest now available to us from AT&T is only 3Mbps. Your competitors now have speeds of over 200Mbps. Why is AT&T, a leading communications company, treating us so shabbily in North Hollywood?"

I saw a Tweet recently talking about how all of those "You Will" ads from the early '90s came true, and... yeah, despite AT&T: a lot of people were trying to build those things, and wondering when AT&T was going to deliver the services that we could put them on top of.
