The True Cost of SMS Messages
nilbog writes "What's the actual cost of sending SMS messages? This article does the math and concludes that, for example, sending an amount of data that would cost $1 from your ISP would cost over $61 million if you were to send it over SMS. Why has the cost of bandwidth, infrastructure, and technology in general plummeted while the price of SMS messages have risen so egregiously? How can carriers continue to justify the high cost of their apparent super-premium data transmission?"
SMS = Serious Money, Suckers.
SMS = Sixty Million per Syllable
SMS = Send Mail, Son
SMS = Sans Mon Sens
SMS = Sizable Monetary Subtraction
SMS = a literal phrase which if sent through it's namesake would bankrupt Donald Trump
Rhymes that keep their secrets will unfold behind the clouds.There upon the rainbow is the answer to a neverending story
Mirror? Seems to be /.'d already. Cheers mate.

It does not change the fact that it is still a force (and one that uses "tyranny of the majority" at that) that has a "null" attack surface (no real place to attack unless you don't mind taking on the majority). That's where the humanity of it stops, and the imperfections have become justifications for normally inhumane actions(just because the "minority" is perceived as "silver spoon elitist", "Marxist", "undeserving", and/or "thuggish" if they present an objection).
I doubt that's covered in any of that (over quoted) person's works in that respect.
Twitter supports and protects racists - by smearing their critics with the "Hate Speech" label.
