Mike Sievert, Chief Executive at T-Mobile US (TMUS), was in traditional upbeat mood about the performance of the self-styled Un-Carrier’s fixed wireless access (FWA) service, although there are signs that take-up growth is starting to slow. In the first quarter of 2023 (Q1 FY23), TMUS gained 523,000 net new customers for the high-speed internet service, taking its total customer base to 3.2 million. However, new customer adds had reached 524,000 in Q4 FY22 and 578,000 in Q3 FY22, suggesting that the peak has been reached. https://www.telcotitans.com/deutsche-telekomwatch/t-mobile-exceeds-three-million-fwa-users-but-growth-slows/6533.article |

Former AT&T customers who had an unlimited plan between October 2011 and June 2015 may be eligible to get a payment. According to the FTC, AT&T throttled their data, slowing down their internet speed after they used a certain amount of data in a billing cycle. https://www.wsaz.com/2023/01/20/att-pay-out-60m-settlement-thousands-customers/ |

The targeted IP-addresses are suspected of sharing a copy of the movie "Fall". While the DMCA shortcut is not undisputed, it appears to be rather effective, at least for now. Tracking BitTorrent pirates isn’t all that hard since IP addresses are broadcasted publicly. With help from Internet providers, these addresses can then be linked to an account holder. https://torrentfreak.com/movie-company-exposes-150-alleged-bittorrent-pirates-using-dmca-shortcut-230421/ |
