Agreed but it is in the pipeline and a viable option to the monopolistic companies now?

The cell carriers will find an excuse to ban them, probably along the lines of claiming the broadband processors and software are not secure therefore they cannot be trusted on their networks.

This would be impossible to disprove without accessing their network.

Does this mean yearly phone realases with a tiny new gadget won’t be a kilobuck anymore?

These will be bannee because conservatives will be spreading insurrection on them

The CEO Torba I think is very well versed in the tecnical aspects having broken away from silicon valley after seeing how bad it could get...look into the guy yourself, you’ll see.

I hope gab isn’t taking on too much as I guess they are getting slammed right now with new sign ups.

"The cell carriers will find an excuse to ban them"

There is a freedom-friendly mobile carrier: Patriot Mobile

Bad idea. Too easy for wireless carriers to “turn off all GAB phones.” Best is to use iPhones and Androids. Blend in and disrupt from within.

Well, Andrew Torva has a track record of delivering something approximating his announcements in the face of overwhelming opposition.

This has been tried many times, and failed, without the huge library of proprietary apps, no one will want it

Apps

A smart phone without a million apps ready to use is a pretty dumb phone.

The first thing they need to do is concentrate on getting geared up to handle the load. They are rather useless right now when their site won’t load.
