Of course, go figure. As soon as I post a moderate defense of telecoms, AT&T has to go diving headfirst into bed with the derp squad over there. Thanks a bunch.
Nobody likes telcoms. Landline, internet, wireless - it doesn’t matter what service they provide, everyone hates all of them.
It’s probably because when a telcom is doing it’s job well, you don’t notice it. You notice your device - “Wow look how fast I just looked that up, I sure do love this new flipaderp of mine,” you might say - but the connection itself is just a monthly bill. Except then when everything gets sluggish and inconvenient, it’s the carrier’s fault.
Anyway, it’s really nice to have Pandora in the car. Thanks AT&T.
Edit: Of course there’s the other side of the issue, where they don’t give an ass about you any more than they have to.
The market doesn’t change just because somebody invented a new flipaderp.
