Okay, so it’s either:

  • incompetence (getting breached); or
  • malice (selling your data)

They might have been better off claiming incompetence. OTOH, we already know AT&T is malicious from project Fairview, so perhaps in the end it’s better for PR to just stay in the malicious lane and not be regarded as both malicious and incompetent.
