Summary: Sirius 'Open Source' wasted hours of workers' time just testing the phone after it had moved to a defective system of Google (proprietary); instead of a rollback (back to Asterisk) the company doubled down on the faulty system and the phones still didn't work properly, resulting in missing calls and angst (the company just blamed the workers who all along rejected this new system)
