Stealth Antennae Try To Blend In
Yet another article about the amazing lengths needed to go to these days to hide mobile phone towers. There are a few companies that specialize in building all sorts of fake structures, which some find upsetting (though, I imagine the site of a big ugly cell tower wouldn't be too pleasing either). It seems that the popular thing, these days, is to work with churches and schools to give them money in exhange for a place to hide a cell tower. Sounds like an episode of the Simpsons.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
