| Show me one thing any provider "developed" after the breakup of Mama Bell.
Comcast certainly hasn't "developed" anything but the ability to operate without a conscience. At least Verizon is deploying the technology that's available now, not in some far off "some day".

This 'technology' they are deploying was "someday" for them too.. just it was years ago.. aka, others have been deploying fiber for almost a decade today. Pull off your blinders and pay attention to the facts. The technology has BEEN available.. they are just NOW deploying it.
Nice spin, as usual. EVERYTHING needs to be 'developed'... 2.0 just came out.. now 3.0 is in the lab and about ready for the street. If you're going to make an argument or a point, make it valid and reasonable.
You know that conscience comcast doesn't have? It's the same one Verizon is missing too... and SBC.. and qwest.. and the banks.. and the government.. and (insert organization here)

Pull off your blinders and pay attention to the facts. The technology has BEEN available.. they are just NOW deploying it. The Bell System first deployed fiber in Chicago in 1977. If the System were permitted to keep and develop the computer and operating system they invented the US of A would be light years ahead of the world.

Who exactly is bitching? I think you will see MANY more people celebrating the break ups, and calling foul that it's being put back together again. | |

..what site are you reading...? Even non tech people were happy to see at&t go before SBC decided to keep that foul name of a bad company about to finally die.
So. sorry, I'm not sure what's happening.. maybe a virus on your computer or what not, but I haven't seen people bitching that it was broken up.

I never said what they were bitching about, they just love to bitch. They bitched before and after the break up. | |

I think what you're referring to is the great wonderful government that can never get it right. The phone company needed to be broken up. However, they took a bad situation and made it a parallel situation and then worse.. now they are still finger fucking it..
The phone network may be reliable.. those who run it aren't.

1 edit | I'll remind you that those telephone companies you hate so much have been deploying fiber since before cable companies figured out how to get more than 36 channels down coax.
The evil Ma Bell-period AT&T actually developed much of what is still used in telephony (and lots of video tech too). Your beloved Comcast hasn't developed squat.

| | | | | | said by RideRed:Yay, another thread derailing fanboy pissing contest. Every single thread about verizon and Comcast has to be dragged into the gutter every single time.
When will people realize it's not "us and Comcast" against "them and verizon"?
They are corporations.It is their job to screw us.It is why they exist.
As long as the consumers takes sides with the corporations the corporations will win.
