The new, new, new AT&T
This afternoon I caught up with the local arm of arguably the world's largest telco, AT&T. Hold on, you say -- didn't the American government break up AT&T back in the 1980s in an attempt to promote competition in the country's telecommunications sector?

Hold on, you say -- didn't the American government break up AT&T back in the 1980s in an attempt to promote competition in the country's telecommunications sector?
Yes, yes it did. However, as American comedian Stephen Colbert points out in an amusing video clip (below) screened by AT&T at today's briefing, the telco is like the T1000 in Terminator 2: Judgement Day.
"No matter how many pieces you break it into, it always comes back together," says Colbert.
