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.

It looks like there’s gonna be some ugly relationships between the two companies, eBay (EBAY) and Craigslist, as they are trying to sue each other.

eBay started the fight but Craig is not taking it lightly and punches back with a lawsuit.

When this is all over, I will start using eBay and Craigslist again. They both fight like pu**ies.

A few weeks back eBay brought a lawsuit against Craigslist, of which it owns an arguably sizable stake. We later learned that the reasons for eBay’s lawsuit was due to Craigslist’s steps to dilute eBay’s shares in the online classifieds company.

Now, Craigslist has responded with a filed complaint of its own, which has been filed in California. According to Craigslist’s blog, Craigslist is charging eBay with “with unlawful and unfair competition, misappropriation of proprietary information, deceptive passing-off, business interference, false advertising, phishing attacks, free-riding, trademark infringement, trademark dilution, and breaches of fiduciary duty.”

This is an embarrasement to their image, what a bunch of hoaxes!  Seriously, we need less politics and more real work in this Web2.0 world, especially with US economy going down.  Can we stop these cat fights pleeez?

Better yet, I’d like to see the CEOs of each company battle it out with real boxing gloves.
