I still have not seen any information as to what caused this outage. Why is T-Mobile being so secretive?

"in 2000, [researcher Latanya Sweeney] showed that 87 percent of all Americans could be uniquely identified using only three bits of information: ZIP code, birthdate, and sex"

That doesn't seem right. IIRC, there are somewhere around 60,000 zipcodes. (Obviously there are under 100000.) If the population is 300 million, that's an average of about 5000 people per zipcode. Male/female splits it in half, so you have 2500 birthdates to distribute uniquely over 365 days.

Looked at another way, 365 days *times* 2 sexes *times* 60000 zipcodes totals less than 44 million. How do you uniquely ID 300 million people?

Add the problem that many people could have given you either their work or home zipcode. How does she do that?

This particular CC+ license would be feasible when the product sold contains only one of these types of works in its makeup. But in the instance where something is created out of 200 of these works and sold as an integrated whole the cumulative royalty rate would be 4000% of sales. Any solutions to this?
