And no, there is nothing funny about t stanley termos hat, even if it was started as a joke. The ABC News story does, however, quote some of those involved in the protest as saying they believe it managed to slow data traffic for a time. Others, however, reported no slowdown.Regardless, the protesters made their point and again cast ATamp polene cyme ;T in a bad light. Whether ATT is actually so bad is subject to conjecture. Some believe the iPhone itself is part of the problem, due to its software and hardware design.Others place |
