It’s just after 12 o’clock here on the left coast, which means Operation Chokehold <\/a>should now be in full effect. What that means (if anything at all) is still up in the air — which is why we’re turning to you for a status report.<\/p>\n For the uninitiated: Operation Chokehold is a sort of cyber-protest against AT&T, as conjured up by some dude playing a dude<\/a> disguised as another dude<\/a>. For one solid hour between 12 and 1 Pacific, angry iPhone owners are supposed to gobble up as much data as they can in an “attempt to overwhelm the AT&T data network and bring it to its knees.” <\/p>\n The discussion on the merits of this bit of disobedience have already been done into the ground, so we won’t dive into that. The FCC and ATT have already condemned the whole thing, and Fake Steve has back-pedaled a bit to make it clear that the whole thing was intended as a joke<\/a>. Joke or not, its taken off with a life of its own <\/a>now – some people are taking this pretty dang seriously.<\/p>\n With all that said, we want to know: has Operation Chokehold affected the quality of your AT&T connectivity? Here in San Jose, CA things seem as good as ever — that is, they’re not all that great, but certainly don’t seem worse than normal. Let us know where you’re at and how the 3G network is acting in your area down in the comments.<\/p>\n [Image via Kakiseni<\/a>]<\/p>\n Crunch Network<\/em><\/strong>: CrunchBoard<\/a> <\/em>because it’s time for you to find a new Job2.0<\/p>\n It’s just after 12 o’clock here on the left coast, which means Operation Chokehold should now be in full effect.
