eMpTyCy Virus

Careful guys, seems like the eMpTyCy Virus is doing the rounds again. It makes your airtime credit and data just go "poof". #CRANONLYREGULATESSTARLINK

My other one's are "Milking The Country" or "Masquerading The Corruption" or "SuperGoneAweh". Used to be an amazing company till they deployed their elite comrades. Luckily Paratus is filling the gap that's coming.

Funny how they increased their prices but not their service quality. Normally we are 5-10 years behind the rest of the world when it comes to changes in tech, but MTC has shown that enshittification can be adopted as quickly as it shows up.

This is why Paratus decided to launch a full on mobile network. Zero issues... and their data is way cheaper. Just need to catch up on coverage.

But on a side (kinda related) note, I see gmail had an update on their Ts&Cs where gmail uses mobile data in the background. Your choices are to ensure your data plan supports it.... or you can close your account?!
