T-Mobile, threatened over AT&T’s new free wi-fi at Starbucks, sues Starbucks for unfair competition.

I agree that this is unfair competition and AT&T is basically trying to monopolize the mobile hotspot market.

I’ve never liked AT&T that much due to the fact that they charge so much.  Well, I don’t really like any telecommunication company, I think most of them are dirty as bank robbers.

T-Mobile should win this case and get lots of money so they can spend it back on their horrible over-priced hotspot technology.

Am I taking sides here?

No, I hate both T-Mobile and AT&T, now I am on Sprint, at least Sprint is fast.

NEW YORK (Reuters) – T-Mobile USA is suing Starbucks, saying the coffee shop chain secretly colluded with AT&T to offer free WiFi Internet access in its cafes despite an exclusive agreement with T-Mobile.

In the lawsuit, filed late on Thursday in New York state court, T-Mobile alleges that AT&T and Starbucks Corp are not living up to an agreement the three companies reached over how Starbucks should transfer from its T-Mobile partnership to a new partnership with AT&T announced earlier this year.
