AT&T: Meet the New US GSM Monopoly 189

itwbennett writes "Why should consumers care about the AT&T/T-mobile merger?

'...Those pesky State agencies that used to have regulatory authority has been usurped by the US Federal Government,' writes Henderson. 'This wasn't an accident. Who would you rather deal with, 43 different state regulatory authorities, or those convenient people on Capitol Hill?'"
