If you have a problem with your cell phone service...
... don't go to the NSA or the FCC or even the ACLU. Nope. Nothing lets a telecommunications company know you are serious like the good old APC... What you never heard of an organization called the APC? Well, that's because its not an organization at all. APC is short for Armored Personnel Carrier.

Man arrested after damaging six cell towers with APC
MELBOURNE, Australia (Reuters) -- A man appeared in court in Sydney on Saturday after taking an armored personnel carrier on a rampage through the city's western suburbs in which he destroyed six mobile phone towers, Australian media reported.
Suburban Mt Druitt police Chief Inspector Guy Haberley said the 45-year-old man had been arrested on his way to damaging a seventh tower, according to News Ltd.
"He continued to destroy mobile tower communications sheds by crashing through the perimeter fence and colliding with structures, causing significant damage," Haberley was quoted as saying.
The charges included malicious damage, break and enter, predatory driving and driving in a dangerous manner.
Australian radio reported the man did not apply for bail during the court appearance, and the case was adjourned until Monday.
I wonder if he would have done more or less damage if he tried driving that thing while talking on a cell phone.
