  • The family created the MVNO off the name, Mango still gets a cut, it’s built off the back of another already terrible MVNO on T-Mobile. The same T-Mobile that was allowed to accelerate 5G growth way ahead of Verizon and AT&T under Mango 1.0 when the oh so loved John Legere cut deals to get the Sprint merger accelerated and a fat bucket of n41 spectrum allocated. I’m sure their Chinese-ODM’d “made in the USA, oops, not” grift phone, if it ever sees the light of day, will be full of terrible infected software as well.

    It is like a big recursive grift.

    I don’t get in what universe people would choose their primary telecommunications connection based on association with a person. Verizon, AT&T, and Dish are also terrible in their own rights, and the number of MVNOs in the US is staggeringly hilarious, but… it’s meant to be a phone/message/Internet connection. One’s cell phone isn’t in the Indy 500.

    The days of Catherine Zeta Jones hocking GSM/GPRS/EDGE are way over.
