    That’s interesting, because my phone is definitely not from ATT and my cell service is US Mobile (which is a reseller of ATT). I connect to ATT towers all the time.

    I wonder how that works today.

      Not entirely sure, but if you are on ATT prepaid there is a bs list of phones that are supported, and while I’ve heard of ways of bypassing it they can revoke your phone randomly. I’m pretty sure it applies to most ATT stuff, but I suspect the main idea is that priority traffic is gatekeeped.
