I have been using smartphones forever and have never had a plan that did not charge extra for this feature… Granted I have always used verizon, so maybe its a verizon thing?

I live in a little backward town in the middle of nowhere and recently took a trip to San Francisco and I have to say this kind of thing was the biggest culture shock to me… I use my phone to text and look at memes, this is a bridge too far!

I remember this becoming a thing at my jr high school in the late 80’s in rural NV, well before there was any internet access in the town at all… this is nothing new.

By the time lunchables showed up in the stores im our small town I was a Jr in high school and was driving over to burger king for $1 whoppers for lunch. Didnt have my first mobile phone until I was forced into getting one for work in 2005…
