AT&T severely limits what you can sue them for — you generally cannot recover for lost profits, lost data, or other indirect losses even if AT&T was at fault.
This limitation of liability provision caps what consumers can recover from AT&T even in cases of negligence or service failure, meaning that significant damages such as lost data, business interruption, or consequential financial losses are contractually excluded from recovery.

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Limitation of liability clauses in consumer contracts are subject to scrutiny under FTC Act Section 5 and state consumer protection statutes. Under California Civil Code § 1668, contracts that exempt parties from responsibility for fraud, willful injury, or violation of law are void. Similar provisions exist under New York and Illinois law. Unconscionability doctrine (UCC § 2-302, Restatement (Second) of Contracts § 208) may render excessively one-sided limitation clauses unenforceable.
