Sprint Chief: U.S. Internet Speeds Are "Horrible" — Even Sprint’s. I Can Fix That. (Video)

In an interview at Re/code’s Washington, D.C., bureau on Tuesday, Sprint Chairman Masayoshi Son lambasted the Internet service currently available to U.S. consumers as "horrible" — way too slow and way too costly — even the Internet service offered currently by his own company, the nation’s No. 3 wireless carrier. But he said he could fix that, if the Obama administration were to allow Sprint to merge with No. 4 carrier T-Mobile. He said that such a merger — which he stressed hasn’t been agreed to — would allow the combined company to gain enough scale to install new technology nationally that he claimed would offer speeds up to 10x current levels in homes.
