Page name should be changed

The company changed its name from The ADT Corporation to ADT Inc., and it is listed as such on NYSE: see NYSE, SEC, Bloomberg and globenewswire.com. As a result, this Wikipedia page's name should now be changed to ADT Inc. from The ADT Corporation. -- Blairall (talk) 16:09, 15 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

ADT Inc. → Telus SmartHome Security – ADT was recently bought out by Telus, renaming to ADT by Telus and most recently Telus SmartHome Security as seen on their website https://www.adt.ca/ Arkm030 (talk) 01:03, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Steel1943 (talk) 01:23, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I see no evidence that the company was renamed or that it is even a fully-own subsidiary of Telus. Steel1943 (talk) 01:33, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose – seems to be about adt.ca, while adt.com doesn't mention Telus. Dicklyon (talk) 01:45, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. The press release (which I found in 15 seconds) is clear that Telus is buying only ADT's Canadian operations. Transactions for consumer brands this big are almost always announced in press releases. Next time, learn how to use Google to find press releases before proposing meritless article moves. --Coolcaesar (talk) 17:09, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. The article has already been updated that Telus is just taking over the Canadian operations.[1] Zzyzx11 (talk) 04:12, 15 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Brinks Home Security acquisition" should be changed to "Broadview Acquisition"

Brinks Home Security changed its name to Broadview Security in 2009. ADT purchased Broadview in 2010. I'd like to propose we update the headline for this section to 'Broadview Acquisition' since it's much more accurate. Also, given that there's another company that also does business as 'Brinks Home Security' operating currently, it also ensures there's no confusion among people who read the article. CommandForm (talk) 17:06, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree; this was confusing for me as well, so I have changed it since you requested it. 72.229.99.110 (talk) 01:13, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

UK operations.

From reading this article it seems to only cover ADT's US operations. Why is ADT's UK operations not covered or even mentioned in this article as far as I can see. For reference ADT's UK website is online at https://www.adt.co.uk. Could anyone give me some clarification? Cheers! Slender (talk) 11:55, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Is the operations section even necessary? I am not able to find any updated information on ADT Operations from reliable sources. It seems like a section that is not necessary if the information is outdated anyways. PubHobbyst (talk) 18:08, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
