If I have cable and wanna switch to satelite or fios - I'd have to call the cable company to advise them that I wanna disconnect my service, in which their retention departments would make nice offers to get me the consumer to stay with them. Verizon is just doing the same as cable has always done, jut reverse. Personally, the playing fields should be the same. Cable is just complaining cuz they wanna be able to disconnect phone company numbers through a third party verifier but don't want telephone company's to be able to do the same.

You are free to have as many interweb providers as you can stomach.
