(but truth be told, when I bought this phone I did not pay much attention to which bands it was suited for, it is not impossible that it at least partly my phone's fault that I am connecting with EDGE speeds, quite the throw-back to the 2000s ;) but back then EDGE was indeed cutting edge).

It is delicious that all over the world, the actual ownership and
resale value of the brooklyn bridge is so well known, that it is
probably not required to explain the joke. That said it might be a
good phrase to create and reference to the individual that made it
famous:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_C._Parker

.. because the police had had to remove multiple newbie brooklyn
bridge "owners" from erecting tollbooths on it. This analogy - call it
 - um, "Parkerization" - which has a similar meaning for wine -
because of so many other would-be tollbooth owners erecting their
financial "acumen" over otherwise simple, universal internet
structures, from web certificates to web3.

I am also kind of curious as to how long this meme has been in the
world and real estate have been "sold" by famous grifters to an
unsuspecting public.
