@arstechnica I guess they're trying to get all of the insanely bad PR news out of the way now that their data breach bungling is taking the spotlight.

@arstechnica Didn't we just get net neutrality reinstated? Someone might wanna tell them.

@arstechnica This is on top of charging to use the data you already have for a mobile hotspot and carrier locking phones so that you cannot install an improved version of android like graphene or lineageOS.

@arstechnica The cell carriers know that the FCC will protect them from any meaningful competition and that putting up cell towers is expensive even if you get permission from the government first.

@arstechnica ooh it’s same as you pay for Amazon prime to have ad free experience then they shove ads in your content and ask more for ad free experience.
