Oh, yes! Let's not start another "what's a tier one" war!
Oh no, let's :-). We get over here in Africa as well. Local operators either calling themselves Tier 1, or being called a Tier 1. Nonsensical. Years back, our Marketing team asked me to comment on the use of "Tier" for our literature. You can probably imagine what I said :-). For me, it's simple - you are present in X cities or Y cities. Tier is useless because the Internet does not come from a single country or a single operator. And saying a network is "big" or "small" is subjective to everyone's perspective, so that doesn't help either. So you're present here, and present there. That's it. It's 2020 :-). Mark.
