 | SBC at the helm? Wow.. think its bad now for the DSS Hackers.. just wait SBC will have techs making lists of addresses as they do repair work on the phone systems of houses that have DirecTV dishes just to check and see if they are in the subscription database! SBC/DirecTV will send out more letters to suspected hackers than ever... in case you don't know DirecTV already acts like the Gestapo.
SBC should stick to what they do best... whatever that is! Raising prices, Trying to block people from buying access to their networks, Lobbying to be the only DSL provider in the states they serve.. I could go on.. but I think you've all heard it before! |

 inciterNoobiePremium join:2000-08-30 Rohnert Park, CA | I see your point to some extent about DSSH but many homeowners have dishes that are inactive for many reasons. Also many homeowers my be paying for DTV and using a DSSH also. Why not just drive around and log every DTV dish you see that would be easy.
With the lack of a public P-4 hack at this time DTV mite look good to SBC. As for DSSH getting even more problems if SBC buys them out or merges the P-4 may go and anothor card mite come up that is DSSHable for the public.
SBC looks like a sound company and other than the Taxes we now don't have to pay vs cable I would welcome the merge. If I keep getting digital local channels I'm happpy Cable-Comm can't do that for me. |

 | Considering DTV history with H, then HU, it's only a matter of time before the P4 is hacked and then it's back to the drawing board. I hope SBC would consider DTV a hackable product long term, not matter how much $$$ is thrown at the issue. |
