@alice @KrissyKat Karamba, I have T-mobile... I'm from Poland, but yeah, it sucks...
@alice @KrissyKat I'm so old that I remember when T-Mobile was called "Era"...

@KrissyKat @alice Fuck that, and the worst part is there really isn't a whole lot of options for mobile carriers in the US outside of AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, or one of their MVNOs, those three networks hold a triopoly here.
@dfx4509b yup, and T-Mo is the *least* shitty of the three shitty "providers".

@draNgNon @alice @KrissyKat that happens to me more especially when talking to someone special

@alice: genuine question and I am NOT saying I agree with this in the slightest, but...what did T-Mobile do here exactly?
They're selling bandwidth and Radiant (the MVNO in question) is buying it. Radiant is the one doing the objectionable thing here, right?
I just don't see how T-Mobile is to blame for having extra bandwidth and selling it off.
@BryanBennett if you sold weapons to, say, Nazis, what would that make you?
A company who chooses to support hatred is a hateful company.

LB: Everything about that article is genuinely unhinged.
Apparently it's quite normal for American Christians to wake up to a message letting them know that loved was probably knocking one out last night.

@alice @KrissyKat The Telekom CEO has said *a lot* of outrageous things over the last couple of years. He’s desperate to make Trump and his christofascist allies happy, because T-Mobile US is the most profitable branch of telekom. (He also wants to buy comcast(?), so he’ll do anything to please Trump, lest he vetoes the acquisition.)

Well hang on a minute.
Does this mean that the type of person who wants a space like that would be unable to interact with the rest of us? You know, to preserve their holiness and shit.
I think we could work something out.

@troy_frizzell @alice @KrissyKat
Yeah. Is there any way we could, like, put a lid on them as well?

@alice@lgbtqia.space @BryanBennett@tilde.zone I am vaguely under the impression that they are legally obligated to provide service to any MVNO that requests it of them?
(normally i’d look it up to verify, but i’m wiped out right now)

For $0.99 / minute they can speak with God via a certified phone operator working in an overseas call center. Or, maybe a fancy AI!

Isn't that what Europe did with the colonies in North America? You guys can be weird over there and do your witch burnings and strange religious practices
