Operation Chokehold: starting at 12 p.m. PST on Friday, December, 18, 2009 (3 pm EST)


Fed up with AT&T's bullshit networK?

Spread the word on this and please participate....


The mission (written as though dreamed up by Apple engineers) is dubbed Operation Chokehold, and it’s designed to encourage iPhone owners to use the most data-intensive apps for a full hour starting at 12 p.m. PST on Friday, December, 18, 2009. The ultimate goal being to bring down the network and “send the message to AT&T that we are sick of their substandard network and sick of their abusive comments.”

The false Jobs writes:

“The engineers have asked me to serve as a kind of communications director for their efforts — soliciting ideas on what apps to use (Pandora may not be the best) and how to refine the attack on the network.

If anyone has ideas, use the comment strings. Tell your friends. Get people involved. We have five days to create a movement and plan a major assault. As the Portuguese said during the Obama campaign: Si, se puede.”

We’re not too sure how many people will take this revolt seriously or follow the impostor’s lead. We do know, however, that the blog has an active following and that there are probably enough livid AT&T customers to take part and make a dent in AT&T’s service. Of course, we should not forget that bringing down a network the size of AT&T could have disastrous implications. Still, we’re curious to know what you think of the crusade and whether or not you’re going to participate.
