In other words, it blocks all spyware -- but they reserve the right to give spyware a pass if it comes from Verizon or a Verizon partner.


Whoa. Shocked & appalled at this news. Who woulda thunk it.

1 edit		 Of course... this is similar to ToS on many wireless services that VZW offered. I know this is not wireless, but the analogy is similar

ToS restricts all streaming, VoIP, video, etc unless its a VCast service (i.e. paid for content by Verizon or a Verizon partner).

If this 'was' security software, then it sort of defeats the purpose of 'security', if it discriminates by '$$$' or having a hole for bypass access.
