Protest AT&T’s Threat to Destroy our Safe and Reliable Landline Telephone Service

 

11:30am Monday May 23rd

AT&T Wireless Store, 425 Market St. (at Fremont St.)

Nearest BART: Embarcadero

Bring your friends, signs, and landline telephone handsets for a group shot.


AT&T and other big telecom corporations are pushing through legislation to deregulate and discontinue analog copper landline telephone service, which we depend on as the only safe and reliable means to call for help during power outages and emergencies, to access services, conduct business, and to reach our loved ones safely and reliably.

Telecom companies are now bullying and deceiving customers into accepting more expensive, lower quality, unreliable digital phone connections that leave them vulnerable to hacking, scams, overcharges and serious health problems.

Join us to demand AT&T stop its attacks on our copper lifeline, and properly maintain and guarantee us all continued access to our landline infrastructure.
