And then we'd be down to what, two wireless carries in the US?
I think you are correct. I don't like the idea of making a giant-bell yet once again but I also don't see a way to correct T-Mobiles obvious cavalier and brazen incompetence. Fines? Companies just factor that into the cost of doing business. Threat of losing their FCC license? I think collusion between business and government would drag that fight out for decades and probably even exacerbate the problem. March their leaders through town with a shame-nun? I don't know what would get real results quickly. Tack on some bigger fiduciary liabilities since phones are used to authenticate bank transactions?
Perhaps if some powerful political leaders had nasty secrets revealed or lost money as a result of these hacks there might be action but that is a big if. That might never happen and that also assumes there is proper attribution.
