摘要

Even as the wireless industry spreads a new gospel about opening mobile-phone networks to outside devices and applications, some of the biggest U.S. carriers are blocking new services that would compete with their own. At issue is a type of mobile text mes -sage known as a short code, a shortcut that lets cell-phone users access an array of services—say, getting sports scores or voting for a contestant on American Idol—by punching in five or six digits instead of the usual seven plus area code. While it's illegal for phone companies to dictate which numbers customers can or can't dial, carriers don't appear to be breaking regulations by blocking short codes. The Federal Communications Commission, which declined to comment, has never regulated the codes. However, on Dec. 11, Public Knowledge and other consumer groups complained that interference in text messaging is a threat to free speech. They asked the FCC to ban the practice, citing Verizon Wireless' refusal in September to allow a short code for NARAL Pro-Choice America. Verizon quickly reversed that decision and apologized.
