It's easy to dismiss comments you don't like as "tinfoil hat"-like, but it's much harder to explain why they should be suddenly trusted. Care to try?

- fourthark 9y agoDon't trust, but also don't overestimate. Incompetence is always the likelier explanation.
- craftyguy 9y agoExcept AT&T has a long history of malice under the guise of incompetence. Just today: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20170426/05094537241/att-unveils-fake-5g-network-hopes-youll-ignore-t-mobile-is-kicking-ass.shtml https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20170426/05094537241/att-u...
- fourthark 9y agoI'm sure you can find a better example than that. That's not malicious, it's just annoying marketing.
- larkeith 9y agoWhile incompetence may be most likely, alternative possibilities should still be considered, and kept in mind for future context.
- notyourwork 9y agoIm not suggesting they should be trusted. I'm just saying not everything requires the same overblown reaction.
