I have not been happy with Verizon's Internet service for quite a while. Long story.I decided to get a Sprint phone and use it as a hotspot. I had concerns about varying stories of data throttling at 5GB.
To test this, I downloaded a number of movies…and I'm happy to report that there has been no throttling.
So I'm wireless now. Mr. Tesla would be proud.
Among the movies…The Godfather Trilogy. I chose this as it was easily available and rather large. I'm glad I did.
I had forgotten how good the films and book were.
Even though there will always be debate as to whether certain characters are based on real people, the first two installments in the trilogy are almost certainly works of fiction, whereas the third and final installment reflects, quite accurately the Banco Nazionale del Lavoro scandal.
The stories are also excellent reminders of how technology is not a necessity for a well run intelligence operation. All parties manage to do quite well without computers or smartphones!
My only complaint, such as it is, is that the Sicilian dialogue in the films is not subtitled and I just don't have time to learn Italian!
