    No, I mean the context is, when you buy a phone from Best Buy, the sales person uses deceptive language to frame it as if your phone will not function unless you purchase a plan by asking “Would you like to activate your phone right now”, implying its locked and can’t even be used for Google Voice/VOIP calls, and as a multi-function tool (GPS, Camera, Notes, E-Reader, Audio Recorder, etc…).

    Deceptive Corporatist language.
