AT&T Steps Up To Google With A Letter To The FCC

October 15, 2009 Ronnie Riggs Jr 2 comments

ATT vs GoogleAT&T Senior VP sent a letter to the FCC stating that Googles’ Google Voice is blocking a range of phone numbers that are associated with “adult sex chat lines” and “free” conferencing calling services to avoid high access charges. The problem is they also blocked other businesses such as: ambulance service, church, bank, law firm, automobile dealer, day spa, orchard, health clinic, tax preparation service and so on, with phone numbers in that range (0000 – 9999).

It will be interesting to see what the FCC will do about this considering Google claims that Google Voice is a software product and not a carrier and they are under Net Neutrality and not the FCC jurisdiction. Either way I think Google needs to refine what numbers are being blocked.

More popular sites like Buy.com and Orbitz apparently approve of a service from a company called Webloyalty that pays these companys to buy your credit card information with your “approval”.

All over the internet you here about people complaining about charges showing up on their monthly credit card statements. I think it was roughly $10 a month. Read more…

Will Myspace ever make it back to the top?

I was looking at Alexa’s stats for top sites and they list Facebook at #3 in the US and also the world. Myspace is listed #5 in the US and #11 in the world.  Facebook passed up Myspace in unique visits at the end of the 4th quarter in 2008 and the numbers has been growing ever since
