Oh wow! #Tmobile is buying #USCellular! I do not think the #FTC will block this move as T-Mobile is smaller than #Verizon & #ATT.

US mobile prices sky high after T-Mobile's Sprint buy – report https://www.lightreading.com/operations/us-mobile-prices-sky-high-after-t-mobile-s-sprint-buy-report "'The 4-to-3 mobile merger in the US led to higher prices and consumer harm,' says research firm Rewheel, which tracked pricing information before and after T-Mobile merged with Sprint." Who could have guessed that killing #NetNeutrality didn't increase competition or lower prices! 😐 #Tmobile #mobile #oligopoly

#TMobile USA sends mobile phone usage data to #PushSpring, which T-Mobile acquired in 2019.
T-Mobile assigns a unique ad ID to your cellphone and gathers app usage data.
To opt out and remove all data of you, there's an app - "magenta advertisements platform".

For me it's horrible that they do so without telling and that the app is somewhere hidden - no one would come up with that name!

Welcome to #America 🇺🇸 where ALL of the major wireless carriers sell customer data to…who are they selling our data to‽ #FCC needs to find out who is buying this data, as it is alarming!

#ATT, #Verizon, #Sprint / #Tmobile (I believe they merged already) are selling our data as if they were #Google. I would not be surprised if various government agencies were buying the info.

ALSO
#TikTok is a "national security" threat because #USGov cannot compel them into spying on you and me, the way #Google #Facebook #Twitter #Tesla #Apple #Verizon #TMobile #ATT #Uber #Paypal #Disney #Palantir and all the companies controlled by the #techbros oligarchy do.

all techbro companies are para-military agencies. techbros are one mustache away from Springtime for Hitler; gleefully spying on you & me for the #ACAB state.

wanna ban TikTok? criminalize #surveillanceCapitalism.
