This has nothing to do with Germany who is a good NATO ally, but with any foreign government

It is not owned per say by the gov't. More like how AT&T was the US monopoly and the gov't was all up in their business before split in 7. They are an isolated company but they have very tight regulatory control. If the US Gov't had an issue they would have blocked the sale of voicestream (i think) to them to make T-Mob.

Think about the economy the next time you feel the need to open a useless thread.

Think about it.
