    Both sides are asking the judge to approve a wrist-slap settlement

    Since 2013, AT&T has quietly bilked customers out of hundreds of
    millions of dollars with a bogus "administrative fee," a fee it more
    than doubled to $1.99 a month in 2018. For a few years there, a
    California class-action lawsuit made it seem like AT&T might finally
    get taken to task. But this week, both sides told a judge they'd
    settle for just $14 million -- meaning customers may get less than 10
    percent of what they paid AT&T, while AT&T gets to keep on charging
    them.
