How functional and secure AES is? The Philippine electorate will once again go to polls and decide who will lead the nation in the next six years of their lives. This important event which will elect new president, vice president and 12 senators for national posts, and seats are also being contested for provincial, city and municipal levels, is expected to be counted unofficially in 24 hours, concluded or canvassed officially in a few days or so but authorities and observers expected it to be done in less than a week. Last presidential election, it was known three days after close of election precincts. This is especially true for nation states, not only the Philippines, that conducts their elections using automated election or computerized-and-networked voting systems. In PH, the past automated elections were encumbered with technical issues and fraudulent results, uttered and written everywhere by many concerned and affected individuals and institutions alike. This time, we could say
For some customers who just want to have Internet connection, speed is 2MB wireless broadband, they would ask the telco’s sales representative if they can avail of the current offering, and if it is available in their area. Some sales representative would surely shoot it with yes, and we already have presence nationwide, and you would pay less from the service if you subscribe now. Maybe, because there is an on-going promotion especially if the so-called offering is a new service. Like for instance, a customer have subscribed on the service. The customer, does not know anything except that it already paid it and, is now ready and excited to use broadband. It turns to be not getting what has been expected.
If you are familiar with the real situation you would always know there is an exception. Not all areas are suitable for that kind of speed or in other term frequency. Plus if you live, even though you are in the city, where, no signal is reachable, service is still being provisioned or maybe already installed but erratic, et al. It can also be because the network is full and congested. This, later on, despite the customer’s complaint that could not use the service, will be used by the telco to collect fees because the customer is still in the so-called locked-in period.
Congestion may not happen if only they would consider the capacity available, like for instance, in a particular area. Eliminating the notion about profiteering and not providing a decent service. This can also be a case to case basis.
