I got my US Sprint bill yesterday, which included their newsletter-type blurb. The newsletter describes how to use their International Long-Distance service and provides a chart at the bottom of the page which lists some countries and their access codes. The newsletter states that certain countries are only accessible by dial-1 service and (specifically!) not accessible by travel-code or access-code service. They explain that this is necessary to prevent unauthorized usage of their network to those countries. This is all fine and good, but why just certain countries? # # Henry Mensch / <henry@garp.mit.edu> / E40-358C MIT, Cambridge, MA # {ames,cca,rochester,mit-eddie}!garp!henry
