It’s not like IndyBay could have just had one of their writers blog their own version of the BART Cell Phone Cut Off Scandal, someone who goes by the “name” “ATU 1555” had to go and just plain copy my content, specifically my blog post called “BART Cell Phone and Computer Network Scandal: Transit Union […]

A BART mole? Obviously there are some people who don’t like it when this blogger questions institutions like The Bay Area Rapid Transit System (BART). Take someone who goes by the name “Tiny Tiger.” (Who the heck would make a Yahoo! email address calling themselves “Tiny Tiger?”) At any rate, “Tiny Tiger” was angry that […]
Here’s an update on the BART cell phone blocking action. BART does not consider the action illegal, rather they claim the action, according to CNET, was “within their legal rights.” This blogger called BART media relations, but has not received a return phone call, as of this writing.
