Brah the fee I pay for what I obtain through these Internets is the knowledge of how to get what I want without any financial transactions. Oh and I got that Pandora unlocked as well. Almost forgot about that one since I rarely use it. As I tend to want to listen to specific songs or mixes.
The cell phone and internet and voice over IP threw the brakes on the landline phone companies and their big pimping. I remember getting my first legit cellphone in 1997. I could make international calls way cheaper than I could with a landline. Then I got with Nextel and by some time around 2001 we were able to chirp nationally. That really changed the game since cell phone calls to other states and towns by that time weren't considered long distance. Ma Bell had no choice but to read the writing on the walls and knock it off with all that long distance billing. To see all that happen in less than a decade was impressive.
Bruh, ever since my last android update I cannot get any pandora apps to work....... really aggravating because I used to have that joint right when they got the video ads and replay feature, skipped all the ads would replay tracks, songs on demand and everything..... now I'm out here getting ads every 4-5 songs like damn no wonder mfkrs just pay
Well said. It definitely slowed down landline companies & their bullshit tactics.
If I remember correctly my pops would be calling some relatives 1 province over and paying $0.25 a minute some 20+ years ago. I couldn’t help but think .. “what is this? Some type of party / dating line at that premium?”
In more recent years it’s some 5 cents a minute which is much more reasonsble for older folks.
If you haven't already done so. Try using the information in the screen shot for your private DNS settings.

Aw man. I remember when Sprint came with the 10¢ a minute for long distance calls to anywhere in the U.S. & Canada deal. Then MCI gave me the same reach of calling for 5¢ minute. That was around 1999.

We had the unlimited LAN cable shit or w/e in the dorms.. and used to get real ignant with itStill remember that call from Shaw Cable in the early-2000s saying you're WAY over the monthly data caps.
Turns out the monthly download limit was 6GB or so, and upload was 2GB.
I left the file-sharing on to download / upload tons of stuff and was at 120+ downloaded, and 80+ shared as the month was in progress.
Tech worker at Shaw - "I can send you some emails on how to LIMIT your data consumption. Unfortunately we'll have to charge extra for the overage(s) if this continues ..."
Funk - "I'm sorry. Thank you. Please send the emails. I didn't realize it was so much ..."
