Re: Facebook Threat
Seriously! Threatening Facebook's business model sounds fantastic.
Re: Let me get this strait?
That's what it sounds like
Might as well not even report on this...
Over the years we have seen so many stories like this and they never materialize. Status quo...
Re: For it, then against it...
Perfectly put 👌
Re: Can't wait...
"I dont have to be an employee to know right from wrong and understand government overreach."
You forgot the apostrophe in the word "don't" above. Maybe if you went to the private sector school a few decades ago that never existed instead of a socialist school, you would've known that.
Re: Can't wait...
haha why thank you my good sir
Re: Can't wait...
I think you lost everyone at "state sponsored socialist propaganda". I'm thinking you're a troll that works for one of the big communications companies and just spewing garbage?! "The Fed" doesn't own anything. We elect officials to represent us (the people) and federal assets. Whether they do or don't is another discussion, but elected officials are chosen to act in our best interests. At its face, my phone & Internet bills are much higher than other countries' around the ...
Re: Fail
Agreed.
Re: Another Thing
Love it!
Re: Explained
What he's saying is that carriers have the money/resources to make it so 'network optimization' is never even needed...but they'd rather milk customers instead. I don't understand why people make excuses for billion dollar corporations
Re: 15%
Well put...I'd say they fact that they can't is just an example of AT&T's and Verizon's lobby exerting their influence. But it looks like with this ruling, and the recent articles about representatives not necessarily against a T-Mobile-Sprint merger...there may be a possibility...
Re: Anyone who thinks this is ok
"The best case scenario would be a politician who doesn't lie and abuse public tax dollars actually holding these companies to their promises"
That really is the root of it all. Wheeler trying to help his buddies out...now that's the icing on the cake.
Re: Obviously, because
where do you get that 90% figure from? And how is it not in consumer's interest? Anything that can help fight cell phone theft as well as the fear of getting your head cracked for a phone is a step in the right direction....
Re: Anyone who thinks this is ok
Perfectly put. When I first read it, I thought you were arguing for ISP's. What do you think about the idea of designating ISP's and cell providers as public utilities and actually regulating them?
Re: Anyone who thinks this is ok
Please elaborate...i'm interested in what you have to say, but I'm not fully sure what you mean.

I have to say...It looks like
verizon is still a ripoff
Blackberry Revival?
would this move anything to do with the fact that the NSA spying on all these companies and data centers? Does blackberry feel it could gain ground now by being the secure company again?
Re: 299.00 4S on BOOST MOBILE!!
False, you sound so ignorant. Like Samuel L said..."English mutha****a, English".
That's a...
ripoff
Re: It Finally Happened
I read that because the federal reserve is about to stop its stimulus program interest rates and the cost of borrowing money so cheap is about to go away. This was a now or never scenario and Verizon realized it would never be able to borrow the money so cheap for another generation
Re: I'd like to be the 1st to say....
Seriously!! I thought there would be a lot more chatter. There's not even one "sprint will probably screw it up" comment. haha. I'm really curious to see what Softbank does...
I'd like to be the 1st to say....

Re: Monkey see, Monkey do
This assessment couldn't be further from the truth.
isn't it
against the law to do this? i could be totally wrong, but i thought that providers couldn't discriminate against certain types of data traffic on their networks
Re: This guy was for the ATT/Tmo merger!
right, Obama couldn't have been re-elected because Mitt Romney pretty much changed his stance on every issue, catered to the extreme right, and dismissed minorities and anyone that was part of the "47%". I'm sure the comments about having binders of women and corporations being people didn't help.... Obama was re-elected because Romney was a toolbag.

embedded sim?
I hope not
Re: i hope...
so true...which is why ultimately they'll take the deal and shut up. Sprint should just raise their offer to like 3.05/share and put all this to bed. Get the deal done

Re: Yaye!!! Now go kill Sprint!!!
Why would you want that? Nobody is killing anyone. If anything, Softbank/Sprint will buy T-Mobile USA down the road.
Re: Yaye!!!
That really might happen down the road. T-Mobile/MetroPCS and Softbank/Sprint might combine....
Re: Note 2
verrrrrr interesting
Note 2
could this be activated on Boost??
Re: This is....
I don't necessarily believe that. It was just a response to a petition. There are thousands of petitions that people create. The fact that it was commented on by the FCC and the President is a great thing. And the FCC chair said he is going to see what he can do. As far as bringing legislation, congress can't even pass legislation that we need to keep the country running functionally. Why would they vote on this now, when ...
This is....
exactly what I like to hear
Re: a lot of stuff
I'm not too up on this stuff, but maybe you guys can help me understand. Does this mean that a cell phone manufacturers eventually won't need to make both a GSM and CDMA variant of a phone? And they'll just be able to have one phone with all the radios (cdma and gsm) built into one chip?
what I took out of this is....
that sprint will ultimately end subsudies, and go for the financing method. It's a good move. I think that eventually, all providers will follow. We'll probably just get to the point where the carriers are cut out of the device buying, and they'll just offer the service.
Until the FCC puts up the nationwide WiFi network they keep talking about, that has the US wireless carriers and cable/broadband companies pooping bricks
