I've been helping the Big 8 Board to regain access to its Google G Suite Legacy Free account, but on Thursday, I accidentally deleted it. Yes, me, your esteemed professional moderator and all around Usenet guy. I'm guilty. I had taken out a "free trial" of Google G Suite for my Quaker meeting, and it was about to end, so I deleted what I thought was the account for my Quaker meeting. I deleted the wrong account. If you have, or know someone who has, the ability to restore the Big 8 Board's Google G Suite Legacy Free account, please help me to fix my mistake. I can be reached via the Google Voice phone number 339-DOGTITS, or via the email address pleasehelp@telecomdigest.net. I'll be forever grateful. I will give you as much, or as little, credit and praise as you desire. In fact, I'll kiss your feet in Macy's window, and give you a week to draw a crowd.

I saw your reply to the teletype question a couple of days ago. I have been looking for an ASR-33 for some time without success. I also repaired them back in the day, so it need not be working, but repairable. Any sugestions from you would be very apreciated. Juan --- Juan A.

AT&T disclosed the error to the FCC in a filing a week ago. The filing provides "a list of census blocks AT&T previously reported as having broadband deployment at speeds of at least 25Mbps downstream/3 Mbps upstream that AT&T has removed from its Form 477 reports." The 78-page list includes nearly 3,600 blocks. https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2020/04/att-gave-fcc-false-broadband-coverage-data-in-parts-of-20-states/ -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ Message-ID: <4D157EE4-6044-4C40-8364-443BF277A704@roscom.com> Date: 15 Apr 2020 10:17:15 -0400 From: "Monty Solomon" <monty@roscom.com> Subject: Arbitration Storm at DoorDash Arbitration Storm at DoorDash Company to workers: You can't sue us; go to arbitration.
