I seriously doubt it, but if he does, even for "research" of the competition, that show how much of a threat is fios for them |

| This is stupid
I really don't see the big deal. Maybe he wants to understand what he's up against and decide what to do to compete. I run an internet radio station and I listen to other internet radio stations, should someone make a news story out of it?

Re: that will be something!
Wtf what a lame photo... Most ever town I been on had a Fiber Splice on a pole thats not something that tells you if he has Fios or not..
However on the "research" part if he does I wonder what he thinks of it...
I also want to add I had a Fiber Splice in front of my house for over 3 years. |

Or maybe Verizon just converted his POTS service to FIOS. Slow news day indeed. |

Re: He's not stupid
said by Cyber2lz  :Why would he want to use his own company's clearly inferior product! Why inferior? If speeds of OOL Boost/Ultra are not fast enough for him, he can just have LighPath ran to his house, which is far much faster than the fastest FIOS you can get (residential FIOS, at least).

If you were running a big company like Cablevision, and competition came into your area, wouldn't you want to test this competition out rigorously? I would hope he's a Fios subscriber for any package Verizon offers. |

...perhaps he has a direct fiber connection to the OOL network? Time Warner offers it here.
However, does anyone else think those are awfully decrepit looking mailboxs for the house of the CHARMAIN of Cablevision? |

SO you are saying that a Chariman or CEO would be smart enough to know what they are testing? LMAO.....BRB gotta go put a 4-Sale sign on that bridge I am trying to unload. IMO I doubt if he has it, it is for testing purposes, but what do I know. |

The photo means nothing, where does that fiber go, his neighbor or accross the street? That could be any drop down box. |

Being a Chairman and CEO of Cablevision, he can get all of their services such as iO Gold, OOL and OV for free. I think all of their employees get that perk, not just the executives.
On the other hand, if he did subscribe for any services from Verizon, he will actually have to pay for them.

| What does the Insight Communications CEO use
I've always asked this question in relation to the CEO of Insight Communications. For years they ( Insight employees ) swore OOL didn't offer the speed that they in fact did. Even after I showed solid proof time and again. Insight's corporate headquarters is in New York. Insightbb of course doesn't service this region. So I've asked time and again which provider the CEO and other Insight New York employees use in that region. As far as I'm aware no one has yet to decide to play honest and come clean with an answer.
