Clevelanders file FCC complaint accusing AT&T of denying high-speed internet access to poor neighborhoods [telecom]

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Three Cleveland women have filed an FCC complaint against AT&T, saying the telecommunications company is denying poor, black neighborhoods in Cleveland the same high-speed internet services that it provides to more well-off portions of the city and surrounding suburbs.
The complaint, filed this week with the Federal Communications Commission, says the slow internet speeds that AT&T provides in those areas either hinder or outright prevent residents from performing tasks that many take for granted, such as watching videos or downloading documents.
