The carrier said its “extended range” 5G network now covers 323 million people, or roughly 97% of the U.S. population. That network taps into T-Mobile US’ far-reaching 600 MHz spectrum holdings. https://www.sdxcentral.com/articles/news/t-mobile-us-hits-mid-band-5g-goal/2022/12/

The Nov. 28 Washington appeals court ruling held that the telecom giant satisfied a $10 million deductible under a cyber policy with a Zurich American Insurance unit with funds it received from a vendor involved in a 2015 data breach. The court rejected Zurich’s argument that a policyholder can’t use a third-party payment as a deductible and found that the insurer must cover T-Mobile’s losses stemming from the breach. https://news.bloomberglaw.com/insurance/t-mobile-data-breach-win-paves-path-for-cyber-insurance-disputes

However, during the past decade, not so much. Years ago, they were on a growth track under CEO Ivan Seidenberg until he retired. Since that point they have struggled to find a new path to growth. Under CEO Lowell McAdam, Verizon struggled and even today, while it looks like new CEO Hans Vestberg is showing some progress, the company is still not on a healthy growth track. Not yet anyway. Through the past year, Vestberg created an entirely new leadership team. That being said, Manon Brouillette who ran consumer was just asked to leave. Vestberg will replace her until someone else is found. https://www.rcrwireless.com/20221212/carriers/kagan-what-verizon-and-att-should-learn-from-t-mobile-us
