Anyone know of a reliable, cheap cell phone carrier in the US? I have an ancient AT&T prepaid plan that doesn't have data, (it used to be Cingular,) and my money is finally running out. So I'm in the market for something new. I'd like unlimited talk and text, (texts are what burned $500 of prepaid minutes out in 16 months,) and some data. I'd prefer less than $10USD/month.

I used US Mobile abroad and enjoyed them. They have a limited plan at $8/month if you pay for a year. Are they good in this country?

Can you recommend any others to look at?

thanks.

C'est quoi cette condamnation contre Apple ? #ATT
Vous savez ce que cela signifie concrètement ?

This is long overdue! I am glad #ATT is finally rolling this out to customers.

However, I believe biometrics (FaceID & TouchID) are easier, superior methods than two-factor authentication.

AT&T rolls out Wireless Account Lock protection to curb the SIM-swap scourge

AT&T is rolling out a protection that prevents unauthorized changes to mobile accounts as the carrier attempts to fight a costly form of account hijacking that occurs when a scammer swaps out the #SIMcard belonging to the account holder.

Old AT&T data leak repackaged to link SSNs, DOBs to 49M phone numbers

They do not have my personal information. #att #data
I had an interesting experience with AT&T. While fixing a large screen TV for one of their employees, I learned a few things. I was lucky I was able to contact engineering when an unusual problem arose. That was long before the data breach, and I am not in it.

"German Officials Might Be Criminally Liable": Five Questions to Kai Ambos (Verfassungsblog, 2025-05-30)

https://verfassungsblog.de/german-officials-might-be-criminally-liable/
———

>> Under the Arms Trade Treaty (#ATT), #Germany is prohibited from exporting weapons if there is an “overriding risk” that they could be used to commit international crimes…

>> … What matters is not whether the respective weapons are eventually used in war crimes or serious violations of international humanitarian law (IHL), but whether such an “overriding risk” existed at the time the export was approved…

>> In the case of the Occupied Palestinian Territory … such indicators have been present for years – and in the current Gaza war, they have intensified to the point that an “overriding risk” must clearly be assumed.

>> A failure to conduct or inadequately conduct the said risk assessment constitutes a violation of international law …

@soatok may I directly ask a question?

During an interview I was asked about #MITRE #ATT&CK. I was aware of it but never considered it of actual utility. Do people use it actually?

Thanks

La mystérieuse salle 641A… qui vous surveille

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXF5sJch378

Au 611 Folsom Street, à San Francisco, il y a un grand immeuble. Celui d’AT&T, le plus grand Télécom américain. Il n’y a rien de bien particulier là-bas. Juste des centaines d’employés qui bossent, tous les jours, pour assurer les communications du pays.

Mais au 6ème étage, il y a un endroit étonnant. La pièce 641A. Une salle où personne n’a accès

Apple è stata multata in Francia per 150 milioni di euro per la funzionalità App Tracking Transparency, ritenuta dannosa per la concorrenza. L'antitrust francese accusa Apple di abuso di posizione dominante, con un'implementazione vista come non neutrale. #Apple #ATT #Francia #Antitrust #Privacy

"In 2006, a retired AT&T engineer knocked on the door of the EFF's office in a rundown part of San Francisco's Mission district and asked, "Do you folks care about privacy?" With him he carried schematics exposing the largest US government domestic spying operation since Watergate.

That person was Mark Klein, who died on March 8 this year from cancer. He was 79.

After a life working in telecoms, Klein realized he had helped the NSA wire up a listening station in AT&T's San Francisco switching facility - the infamous Room 641A - that was being used to illegally spy on Americans.

The evidence he gathered and shared led to two lawsuits that exposed the extent to which US citizens were being spied on by their own government in the post-9/11 world. Klein faced legal pressure, death threats, and the constant fear of ruin, to get his story out and tell the public what was going on. But Klein regretted nothing."

I did a search for something, found no definitive answer, so I wrote up a blog post that has the definitive answer (well, it worked for me) so that in the future others do not need to suffer as I have suffered...
