    When your immediate reaction to corporate news is to, 1) calculate how this will make govt surveillance easier 2) rue the fact that an available provider of GSM service is probably going away https://twitter.com/b_fung/status/990623131009257472 …

        Sprint is the one getting absorbed by T-Mobile, so you're losing an awful CDMA carrier.

        GSM is dead anyway, they're going to be LTE only very soon.

        EV-DO is a data layer that was designed to be the evolution of CDMA but it's still 1st get 3G service and is awful. CDMA -> LTE is unbelievably hacky which is why VZ is sunsetting their CDMA network so aggressively. sprint with all their new t-mobile money will do the same.

        A lot of MVNOs rely on T-Mobile's network too.

        When your view of America's wealth corruption goes all the way back to .. 1999? How much did Sprint execs pay themselves with their built-in golden parachutes when the Sprint/MCI merger failed?
