Subject: Duguid v. Facebook, Footnote 7: TCPA Landscape Significantly Altered By Ninth Circuit Decision
by David O. Klein
It has been about one year and eight months since the United States
Supreme Court released its landmark decision in Facebook
v. Duguid. Since then, numerous courts have incorporated Facebook into
their opinions, with variations in their interpretations. For many
plaintiffs filing suit under the TCPA, Footnote 7 of the Facebook
decision has provided them with a fighting chance in many of these
courts. On November 16, 2022, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals
issued its own analysis of the breadth of the Facebook decision, and
the application of Footnote 7, in Borden v. eFinancial. In time, as
detailed herein, Borden may well prove to be the most definitive
pro-defendant circuit court decision to date.

Unfortunately, I don’t have an opinion on either of those phones, but
are you sure that her Verizon phone will no longer work after
December? Verizon first announced that they are cutting 2/3G CDMA
services in December of 2019, and here we are 3 years later... also,
T-Mobile GSM 2G is still alive and “well”.
When the Verizon notices first went out in 2019, my mother panicked,
and ditched my grandfather’s 3G Verizon cell phone in favor of a newer
model; just a plain flip-phone. Unfortunately, grandpap was
deteriorating mentally, and he wasn’t able to grasp the use of the new
phone; he ended up getting rid of his mobile phone all together.
Meanwhile, the networks are still up and running.

I’m sure: Verizon Mobile has sent me three letters, stating that the
phone won’t work on Verizon’s network after December of 2022. Verizon
Mobile, if it’s anything like Mother Bell, won’t put anything in a
letter that could be used against it in court, and lying about the
need to buy a new phone certainly meets that prohibition.
As for T-Mobile, I’ll have to check that out. The phone is an LG
VS930AT, and the tingmobile site says that the IMEI number from it is
"incompatible" with their service. I’ll check T-Mobile and AT&T as
well, so thanks for the tip.
Come to think of it, I was told there’s a phone service that works
only via WiFi Internet connections, and her old phone might be able to
use that for a while. Does anyone know about such as offer?
In the meantime, I’ll look for a good price on one of the new phones
my wife wants.
Bill

Subject: Why Telecom Is Driving Investment Deals
by Nicholas E. Rodriguez
The COVID-19 pandemic spawned a number of opportunities as businesses
across the world raced to meet essential needs. Remote work, virtual
school and social-distancing measures accelerated the need for
technology to adapt, which has resulted in an unprecedented
transformation of the telecom sector. Accessible and affordable
telecom services grew evermore important during lockdowns and proved
to be a "pandemic-proof" industry for investors.
