The fuck they don't. If the report said that they are lying. It doesn't even have to be stolen, it can be off contract and you get a bad ESN# which means no one is going to take and you have for flash it or wipe it. I am really giving the benefit of the doubt here, but if the FCC said that then you can tell them i said they are full of shit. People dont even have control of their devices this is the kind of lies that make our government worse than any straightforward government that does what they say. You can literally just listen to whatever the president or anyone else says will happen by cause of a new rule or legislation and it will do the opposite. every single time. It is to benefit the corporation, i guess politicians like the corporate cock in their mouths with all the privilege they are afforded. I know people have a hard on for corporations, because they isolate blame into the either an let someone do whatever they want. Fuck you, and fuck you too! for reading my comment
