FTC 'Continues to Misrepresent' Ads: Frontier

The FTC and six states "continue to misrepresent" Frontier advertising of its DSL speeds, the telco said in docket 21-cv-04155, asking the U.S. District Court for Central California Monday to dismiss the claim against it (see 2108160049). Plaintiffs "continue to tout their incredible shrinking advertisement to argue that defendants’ explanatory language is 'tiny' and 'inconspicuous,'" the carrier said. The ISP said the ad cited in the complaint was "purposefully rendered illegible" and "shrunken by 80%." The FTC declined to comment Tuesday.
