Transparency in how providers muck about with wireless connections is nice and all, but honestly, what real use is transparency unless you can act on it. Between the wireless industry's pervasive contracts, and the low number of provider options, the average user has little recourse when they get poor treatment.

Google is pretty much telling us that it is too much to ask that we have choice, transparency and neutrality on our public airwaves, a common good. I do not agree.
