    AT&T is about the size of T-Mobile and Verizon

    So, AT&T, the Deutsche tel / pacNWBell fka AT&T Frankenstein, and Bell Atlantic fka AT&T

    They’re all AT&T except for the part of Pac NW Bell AT&T that got bought by, essentially, German AT&T.

    I want to believe they don’t collude and perform, but I’ve lived in Canada and seen the decades-long dance between Rogers(fka Shaw fka AGTel + BCTel) and Rogers(Rogers) before they became just Rogers.

    And now I’m sure that was all founded on a sugar empire.

    But our major players have been dancing around each other for a long time before one bought the other – and I’m sure it’s just to save on Green Fees at the club because it’s not one corporate rate.
