Can AT&T do this? I think this is terrible, class action lawsuits are a way for the little guys to band together to fight giant corporations such as
AT&T when they have been wronged. Individually its worthless to go after a big corporation because you will not be properly compensated. So is this
AT&T's "get out of jail free card"? I hope not. What do you think?

The End Of Class Action Lawsuits?
The End Of Class Action Lawsuits?

Can companies grant themselves a "get out of jail free" card when you sign their contracts? A lawsuit filed in Seattle against AT&T/Cingular
may settle that question.
The nonprofit public advocacy group Public Justice is asking a federal court to set aside a provision in old AT&T wireless contracts that prevents
consumers from banding together and filing class action lawsuits against the company. The future of class-action lawsuits might be at stake.
