Econet deserves a Consumer Council of Zimbabwe award for the numerous messages it sends to users every 5 minutes. Buddy beats, Ecocash, Buddy that, 34443, 34445, Datsun120Y you name it! These days when your phone message tone rings and so does your colleagues' who happens to be on Econet also rings, you just know who it is from. While laws will take time to be crafted seeing that party politics and power rule supreme in Zimbabwe, I think there must be something like the "Webby" awards for technology companies that do irritating things, boring things, biggest boobs, etc. (focusing on the negative yeah! seeing that everyone just wants "positive" things these days, even at the expense of the truth.)
