I'm not surprised. Consumers have been subjected to at good 20 years now of being conditioned to associate anything that matches the pattern /\dG/ with increasingly exaggerated, hypoxic, and unbelievable sales pitches. The only reason US telcos haven't been properly called on their BS is that people (understandably) don't see taking their money and going home as a realistic option.
