Some people freaked out the other day when they saw that AT&T wanted to tack on a two-year contract to its “bring your own SIM card” plan. Why should I have to sign up for a contract when the entire rationale for contracts is to subsidize cellphone, which I’m providing?

It was a typo. Relax.

AT&T will not require you to sign up for any sort of contract when your bring your own SIM.

Crisis averted!
