Exactly. I can't find any more detailed wording on the final proposals anywhere, but the press release version was a joke on wheels. There is nothing in the wording that prevents the status quo, except you should be able to move between carriers with the same device and expect some level of service. I didn't even see anything that dictates a minimum level of compatibility.
The FCC claiming a win for device portability in an area where said devices are some of the most disposable and rapidly evolving consumer items makes no sense.
Current GSM networks would likely already fall within these guidelines. So good to see more government agencies with an eye on the past claiming it as the future. |
