Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

AT&T gives investors and gov’t wildly different takes on need for fiber Internet

AT&T says fiber Internet is a "superior" technology that is built for today and the future because of its ability to deliver symmetrical upload and download speeds of 1Gbps and higher. AT&T also says that "there is no compelling evidence" to support the deployment of fiber across the US and that rural people should be satisfied with nonfiber Internet access that provides only 10Mbps upload speeds.

they are only doing it because other companies are making a mint providing fiber to rural areas. one of the reasons I left was because they basically fiber to rural areas and it would of made a mint but stank thought otherwise but now i am with a provider providing fiber and it has been very lucrative. stank is an id--t.

It’s a matter of cost and alternatives. Fiber is great technology, but in rural areas it is cost prohibitive and wireless tech makes more sense. You don’t buy a Ferrari to drive on a beach, you get a Jeep.

I can get up to one Gig Comcast now at my home. my subdivision in Atlanta is 90% Comcast and 10% satellite. Atlanta was BellSouth headquarters. Not to mention coverage of LTE is not as good as Verizon in Georgia. I still get some promotion to come get Directv and 18 megs broadband. These fools lost the opportunity to build a fiber footprint. Even with uverse they went cheap and used old copper network. Then wasted tons of money mismanaging by buying DirecTV and Time Warner. I cringed every time I saw GOT promotions in our mobility stores knowing these fake executives didn't understand their own business. At least McElfresh understands the business even though he lies a lot. Stupid is not strong enough word to label what Randy and Stankey did and are.

It is not unusual for two-faced T to take both sides of an issue. On the one hand, they want investors to believe they will make $ with T. Good luck with that while Ratty and Stinky is in charge. On the other hand, T does not want the Gooberment to become a competitor in the internet space.

Here is another example. Look how much Stinky is pushing his W O K E agenda, with the defund the police and all that great stuff. Yet on the other hand, the First Net contract T was awarded is the biggest part of the T's cell business! Stinky does not know that and likes to sp-t in his largest customer's face.

The take-away - the leadership of this company is incompetent, S T U P I D, and corrupt.
