Synopsis
Cell phone companies are evil. Yes. Cell phone companies take advantage of all their customers. Yes. So does that mean they're ripping off Greyhound Rescuers and Scientists and Volunteer Grandmothers who teach underprivileged children? Yes. In this campaign we meet three true American heroes. Real people, who do really good deeds and are getting really screwed by their cell phone company. If they do it to them, what do you think they're doing to you?
