If everyone plays nice this could be great.

Every cell phone doubles as a cell tower.

And if you don't have the latest/greatest phone you may never be able to use it if it is constantly being bogged down by other peoples' traffic.

I think it was already determined that those towers were put up by some Governmental Unnamed Agency or more than one.
