Never use T-Mobile if you’re a rural dweller. T-Mobile is an urban carrier annd once you leave the interstate or city they have the worse service going. We used it for a month and was shutout almost completely until we switched to Verizon.
Of course they will be porting all calls through their AI smart grid so you will be teaching it all there is to know about you and anybody you talk to, but such a small price to pay for “free.”
If something is “free,” YOU are the product.
At what point do anti monopoly laws come into play?
Anti-Monopoly Laws?!?!?!?! What are those?
No thanks. If it’s free then they’re getting something from you they shouldn’t.
Just don’t see how that’s possible. Got to be a major catch.
But, please, can they track me?
I’m deaf as a fencepost so they ai’t gotten nuthing from me.
You can already buy 1500 mins-1500 texts-1500 data for $125.00 from tracfone.
(VERIZON)
That’s around $12.00 a month.
Actually that’s closer to $10.00 a month.🤔
They don’t. They don’t have a monopoly in any market. So leveraged horizontal expansion is perfectly legal.
Those have been on “ignore” for decades. They broke up IBM and Bell Telephone, then never did anything like that gain.
Never.
Amazon is applying a horizontal acquisition plan, as opposed to vertical.
Still plenty of competition in all amazon industries.
Plus if they are piggybacking off the above carriers, usually their users get priority over amazons.
Prime is a ripoff from the word go. They promise you faster free shipping, but when I simply select free at checkout, they ship it faster than “normal” anyway. I’ve also read that Prime got caught displaying higher prices than non-Prime consumers, too. As far as I can see, paying for a Prime account only nets you freedom from those bloody popups at checkout, demanding that you join Prime.
Why should a Prime phone account be any different?
Yup. It’s awful out in the sticks
Someday everyone will be working for Amazon.
If you have a cell phone. They already are
IF there is unlimited data.
Otherwise, no deal.
those only seem to apply to Microsoft for some reason.
