I work in the mobile. I am experiencing this daily. IF normal consumers gave a shit about patching old phones, THEN we have a legitimate shot at fixing this problem. But carriers are generally transitioning away from treating handsets as a revenue source and focusing more on transport.
So please- think hard about repeating this cheap shot. It's easy and can win you internet points, but I am arguing that now is the best time in history that we could start making progress on this issue. Comments like this do not help move the ball forward.
Though from what I've witnessed, even though it is unreasonable, it seems most non-techs expect the carriers to do it automatically for them without their involvement.
