Dude, wtf, I'm sure that everyone that voted fo these bastards is against this, what happened to "we the people"? It's ****ing easy to be safe online, I don't need the "Man" breathing down my throat when I surf the web.
Just to add, it's only passed the House so far, hopefully Senate doesn't pass. Wish the jokers up in D.C. would stop acting like children, maybe that's who they were talking about when they mentioned protecting children, themselves.

"We the people" need to stop being ******* and take control of "our" government that's suppose to serve "us" not "itself". Everyone is too afraid. Remember slavery? I don't, because people were brave enough to fight for rights, even give their lives. Not saying it's that serious but petitions and awareness ain't doing ****. Time for the majority of the US to **** on the White House's front lawn and tell the government they can wipe our asses with their lips.

This process of getting paid by such companies that will in return give donations at election time for their campigns so they can get re elected is really annoying and is not a government. Att did their board meeting and voted 95% not to be involved with net netruality. Its just bad for isp's all the way around. Obama will veto if it passes the house. And yes us the people need to do a better job of voting........

Cause att is a large corp that started as a landline company that offers internet service and now they're the second largest provider in an industry where the line between phone service and internet service is quickly fading. They're essentially a telecommunications goliath along with verizon that the fcc needs to break up. Remember the too big to fail of the banks. That's what we have here with these two companies. Now that they're swallowing up their smaller rival im amazed at the fact that few people are speaking out on this. Were the ones that lose out because of lack of investments. These companies will try to take advantage of their copper networks before they put any significant investments into fiber optics which is already at least a decade old. That's why google is buying up fiber optics lines, most of the fiber optics network is underused in the US. Googles setting up their own internet service which will outcompete these old farts. What we need is more companies like apple and google which try to give consumers choice as opposed to having gloiath corporations like att and verizon which try to bloat our phones with crap and charge extra for tethering because theyre both internet providers and cellphone companies. God forbid you use your smartphone as an actual smartphone...that costs extra.

Palmer Settlement Notice?

Just received this in my email this morning about a class action lawsuit? I am wondering if it is legit and if anyone else received it.
I did. If you read it, it's for people in Washington State that received telemarketing calls fro ma particular company using an auto dialer
The class action lawyers make the most money off those cases

I got the email too, and actually there are three parties involved in the settlement. The first two that qualify must live in Washington State. The third party is:
(c) lived in the U.S. and were called more than 30 days after you asked not to receive Sprint solicitation calls.
Therefore, the best thing to do about this is read the email in its entirety and go to the website or call the phone number to get more information. Here's the phone number and website:
1-800-465-4481

Sprint will want it but they dont have the money, there is a group of private investors that have been lurking on the fringe. They have been designated the most likely outcome. Chinese and Russian firms have shown an interest but the Congress hurdles would be great.

QFE. I wonder why it tok this long though, I would've shot it down the moment they announced it.
i think apple should buy tmobile so they can give iphone users a true end to end experience. tmo could exclusively sell iphones, leave all the good android handsets to the other carriers. if all the big networks(ie att and vzw) saw a mass exodus of customers to go to a service provided by apple, prices would prolly go down across the board.

100 is fair..as long as it's in good working condition it's not a bad deal.
I wouldn't go lower than that Gordon, if lowballers aren't willing to pay a Benjamin, don't you worry, the devs aren't cheap. If they need it, they'll buy it. Perhaps a member in need will buy it if not a dev. I bought mine for 230$ when it first came out off-contract, but there's still people with money to blow who I could sell it to for 250$ if I felt like it, so $100 is fair if you ask me. Some people love to be on the contrary, they love it, just ignore it. Lol.

Probably because Apple doesn't see it as a "threat" to them the same way as they see other Android manufacturers.
Apple is sitting on an enormous pile of cash, so they've decided to see how many other manufacturer's phones they can knock off of mainstream store shelves. They're not worried about an obscure phone from China that isn't going to sell anywhere near as many units by comparison.
Funny phone though
