I've said the same thing many many times, I can't remember the numbers but the monetization of facebook data per person (If I remember correctly from something I read a year back, …

I came here to post this, too little to late. I don't know what they could realistically do to alter their public image at this point besides change their name possibly? I am going…

This may sound silly to you all but I have recently given up paying for internet at my house as an experiment due to the prevalence of free public wifi nearly everywhere. I'm about…

My experience getting offered relates to southern/midwestern states, TN/NC/GA stand out to me, and the drivers I've met/spoken with who did this most regularly operated in areas of…
