A listener calls in and wonders about "cutting the cord" and dropping cable television service from the phone company, and also asks about the Ooma VoIP service and Internet TV and movie streaming service alternatives, and even some pitfalls and considerations when cutting the cord. We also discuss getting television services "over the air" without cable using the proper antennas. A caller asks for suggestions on solutions to protect kids from predatory behavior online. Continuing on the cord cutting discussion, a caller with a six-television house and sporadic internet service and cell service looks for less costly solutions. An infrequent Facebook user wonders how data on him is gathered and used for marketing purposes. A listener asks if the Consumer Cellular company is a good value as a cell service. We offer suggestions on how to compare the value of cell services, plus alternative services like Google Fi. A cord cutter calls in to tell how he halved his bill from $300 to $150 when he "cut the cord." Vermont man proves cell phone signal coverage is not as good as the maps would indicate. We help a caller troubleshoot a "secure connection failed" error in the "Firefox" web browser. Finally, we end with more "cord cutting" discussion.
