massive disaster in haiti, in real time. it turns out there was also a minor flip side to that phenomenon. one american aid worker from maryland happened to find herself in haiti when the earthquake struck there. she used her cell phone to text her friends and family back home to tell them she was okay. she used her cell phone to post images on facebook so her friends and family would not worry about her safety while there and so she could help document what was happening there. then she came home from haiti to find her cell phone bill for $34,872. wow. with no warning from her cell phone provider that she was exceeding her international text and data plan, she got hit with a $35,000 monthly bill. which she was legally liable to pay. as of today, cell phone companies being able to do that to you with no warning is over. it's at least coming to an end. today the cell phone industry agreed to start sending alerts to customers who get close to their monthly voice, text, or data limits. this isn't technically a new government re
