Is there any plan that offers truly unlimited "3G" equivalent speeds? "Up to 2G speed" is an unusable scam. I used to tether to my phone on a truly unlimited 3G connection and that was what I used for home internet. Netf

I feel it's clear the fad is waning, but that's my experience among my crowd. For young children, for grandparents, maybe for other countries it's not the same. For example Facebook's trendiness is in that familiar slow

I was surprised to hear this, since there's already a rail line from DC to NYC. But maybe that's why they're so receptive, and 30 minutes is a whole lot better than 3 hours. I hope this succeeds, I'd love to see some lin

Maybe your comment is correct in whole, but your examples immediately brought to mind science headlines from the past few years. Specifically the use of Near InfraRed (NIR) light to treat Multiple Sclerosis, the use of blue light to heal wo

One from about a few weeks ago was: 1-866-978-6618 It's listed online by other people as a scam number. I did report it, and I ought to collect the other numbers as well.

I should have been specific, these calls are impersonating the FBI and IRS. I do know that they started after I registered a domain with a real phone number - lesson learned.

I've been getting robot calls/voicemails (IRS/FBI impersonator) where the scammer leaves a callback number that matches the caller ID number. Always an 800 number. Any insight into how this works for the scammer, how they don

I made the mistake of registering a .us domain and using my regular phone number, after six months I've started receiving the infamous robo IRS calls. The robot call is listed as being from 1-866-978-6618 and in the voicemail requests

It's poor form to describe items as clear, obvious, trivial, 'of course', easy to see, and so on. To look too much into it: if the item is clearly understood then there's no need to identify it as clear. Clearly it'

It seems to me we need to write 'privacy in public' into our laws. We've reached a time where government possesses the power to track most citizens simultaneously. Businesses can do the same with everyone they come in contact
