Re: Well, its true
If you ask me... it's because AT&T has a case of the "Captain Obvious." Are we suppose to think AT&T is some visionary company for investing for the future??? Are we suppose to thank AT&T for saving us from the impending doom? AT&T seems to want to a get a pat on the back for doing something any half-intelligent person would do... invest and prepare for the future.
If someone said 'Unless we expand the highways in L.A., we're going to have total gridlock, all day, everyday, and highway driving will come to an end in L.A........ but, no need to worry, we're going to invest in new expansions, etc so there is nothing to worry about' I bet people would look at that same someone with a 'Well, duh, you moron' kind of look. |

said by Nightfall  :So whats the point of the article? I was wondering the same thing. Sensationalist headline, followed by sarcastic insinuation that AT&T "is at it again". Followed by a suggestion that they need to do exactly what they announced they are going to do. Which prompted this whole headline/story in the first place. Huh?
So in a nutshell it's mocking AT&T for stating that the internet would exceed it's current capacity in a few years, so they are investing more in building up their backbone. I don't get why this was even written. |
