Correction: Phone producers should sell their phones detached from the teat that is a dedicated carrier and let users decide which network they want to use it on.
- riobard 16y agoShould make a law to completely forbid subsidiary of mobile phones from carriers. The current situation is so harmful to the long term development of mobile Internet and mobile devices.
- iamdave 16y agoA lot of the problem in enacting such a thing is that manufacturers have completely bought into this as a way of life. Take the Samsung Galaxy S lineup, four practically identical phones on four different carriers, with four different names with four different types of lockdowns and preloaded software ontop of Android. I can't think of a single reason why that makes sense, yet I have a Galaxy S in my pocket right now.
