      From: malQRMassimilation@gmail.com              The remnants of Sprints network have been put out to pasture. As of       yesterday, Sprints LTE network has been retired by its new owner,       T-Mobile. Thats along with Sprints 3G CDMA network, which was shut       down earlier this year, and what remained of T-Mobiles own 3G network,       which enters retirement today. T-Mobile spokesperson Justin Paulsen       confirmed to The Verge that the network shutdowns are now underway.              It may come as a surprise that any part of Sprints network was still       operational so recently. In April 2020, T-Mobile officially took       ownership of the company, including all of its spectrum and network       towers, which would ultimately be repurposed for 5G. Sprints 3G CDMA       network was the first to go when T-Mobile started to shut down Sprints       systems in March. It had originally planned to sunset the network at       the end of 2021, but after a heated debate over anti-competitive       behavior during which Dish chairman Charlie Ergen called T-Mobile a       Grinch, the date was pushed back.              https://www.theverge.com/2022/7/1/23191183/sprint-network-shutdo       n-t-mobile-sunset-lte-3g-cdma              --       (Please remove QRM from my email address to write to me directly)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
