Please explain to me how competing with Google's broadband operation fits into all of this, then.
- googler1500 10y agoI think what they were trying to say is that AT&T is buying up Time Warner Cable/Spectrum to own more of the broadband and cellular service markets, such that they can better compete with Google, now offering broadband and Google Fi data service over Sprint and T-Mobile's cellular networks.
- marcoperaza 10y agoAT&T is NOT buying Time Warner Cable/Spectrum.
- jrockway 10y agoAT&T already has a wireline ISP, U-Verse. Google does not produce any TV channels, as far as I know. AT&T is buying Time Warner because Comcast bought NBC/Universal. I'm pretty sure it's as simple as that.
