You know how the Nazis wanted to publish The Lord of the Rings in Germany but had to write Tolkien first to ask if he was jewish? Or that they're nuclear weapons program was slow because they had to make sure it was white guys who did the science?
It's that mentality.
The funnier thing is, there aren't any "Patriot Mobile" cell towers or data centers, basically they're a racism-themed Cricket Mobile or TracFone, where they rent bandwidth from one of the big three (AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile these days if I understand correctly) but they're their own retail/customer service setup.
