[ale] [OT] White House Petition to Legalize Mobile-Phone Unlocking

[Ron Frazier (ALE)]

Hi all,

This came from another forum I'm on.  This petition is getting close to 100,000 signatures.  If it goes over that, we may get the right to unlock our phones back.

Sincerely,

Ron

"Sign a whitehouse.gov petition by Saturday and, if the petition reaches 100,000 signatures, the administration must respond publicly about a recent decision by copyright regulators making it illegal to unlock mobile phones purchased after January 26. Unlocking enables a phone to operate on a compatible carrier of a consumer's choosing."
