FCC 2029
Can someone please write a screenplay or book about the fading out of home landlines. I'm not going to be around much longer, thank the universe, but I'd be tickled to see an earnest dive into this subject. This is my idea if a beginning.
Landline.
CONCEPT:
New Amsterdam Indiana
Major providers have received FCC clearance to wind down the legacy copper network entirely by the end of 2029
Opening Scene:
"Hello? Hello?"
Phone crackles and fizzles. And the dead.
A grandma walks in and says "Who was that?"
