Boycott Vodafone, SuperPages, Yellow Pages, too

To those wanting to handle this via a boycott of Verizon, Vodafone is one of its parent companies.

Vodafone operates in 30 countries.

And here some companies Verizon effectively has controlling interests in:

CANTV Puerto Rico Telephone
EuroTel Bratislava
Excelcomindo
GNC (not the nutrition store)
Micronesian Telecom
SuperPages
Yellow Pages

You may want to

And here is a list of members of their Board of Directors:

Re: Boycott Vodafone, SuperPages, Yellow Pages, t

While I have no desire to defend Verizon, your statement that Vodafone is a parent company to Verizon is incorrect. It is a joint investor and minority owner of Verizon Wireless. Verizon Communications owns 55 percent of Verizon Wireless while Vodafone owns 45 percent.

I don't know that much about corportate governance.

What is the difference between being one of 2 companies owning a third company, with 45% of the stock, and being "a parent company"?

A parent company would have ownership of the stated company. Think GM and Pontiac, where GM is the parent.
