Hearing people can be really immature towards the services that are available for the deaf. Namely ip-relay for the Sidekick. Yes it's already implemented in the Sidekick software, but it's sad that it's been abused, terribly.
T-Mobile should really only make this available to those who have data only plan on their sidekick. I can tell you that almost the majority of the hearing who has sidekick will not choose that plan. Sadly, this occurs:
Hearing Abusing ip-relay
Read ALL of the posts....scroll to the bottom. There's a post by a deaf person objecting to this whole thing. What made me even MORE furious is this line, "I can explain why it took so long for someone to notice it. 90% of the deafs are illiterate. One of the deafs favorite pastimes has been hacking and I seen that with my own eyes and still they dont pick this thread up till today."
OH my frickin' God. I'm not usually 100% involved with the Deaf community, but this really pisses me off, seriously.

Oh wow....then, it is no wonder that FCC wants to cut IP relay services this year. I have to mail in my petition to keep IP relay services alive. *sigh*
