Where this is news? I agree...
does the fact he's a doctor and a vet make him any more worthy? doubtful. would this even be news? doubtful.

So .. great... now that his email contains shit... wonder how many email filters are gonna block him... bet he'll be on the phone daily with verizon because he can't email someone.

good going dr shit... enjoy.

Good point. He may have won the battle, but lost the war. He may now have his email rejected by automatic filters with people he is trying to trade emails with.

That is what Verizon tried to get him to do initially. They weren't stopping him from using his name on the Account, but only on the email address.

It's easier to manipulate non-religious people, Ever hear of Communism?
With out religion your are more suceptable to manipulation. Look at china, they banned religion. It's much easier to manipulate people who don't have any religious convictions.

Since when does signing up require you to use your name on your e-mail? He was not allowed to request service because I'm guessing the system did not allow that to be put in the field name area. This hints at that "...they couldn't complete the order because his last name contained an expletive.". My e-mail does not have my last name and many others do not either.

Heck, I have one e-mail with any real info. All others have the names of one initial in the field area or something else like the name Jesus Flies.

Re: Herman I. Libshitz

He does not have to have his name in his email.
He already had a telephone acct with verizon. With that name on it. He applied for DSL and it too had that Last name on it. When u get DSL from Verizon you are assigned a Generic User name that you are supposed to change on first login. That Generic user name is usually something like VZ23A8945 that no one can remember. Once u change the User name to what you want you are strapped with that as the Primary Emaill account as well. So you have to pick a good one. That is where this guy got all messed up. The Username because its also an Email address can not have the SHIT word in it. If he had just chosen a name like most other doctors for his user name like "ITHINKIMGOD" He would have had no trouble.

Re: Herman I. Libshitz

Was this guy using his email for private or personal use? I can see how this would be a real problem if he was using it for business use. Being a doctor (or other professional) generally means your name is your brand. Obviously you wouldn't want your patients to email you at drhenrylibexpletivedeleted@verizon.net. How about people in this country simply show a little maturity and stop freaking out over a "bad" word ("My ears are on fire because you said Libshitz!").

That's one of the biggest reasons ISP typically prevent email addresses that contain such things. It's not a knee-jerk, nanny state decision as people would lead you to believe. I'm waiting for the follow up article about how the good doctor is not receiving all his emails and patients are dying...of course written by Kommie Karl.

Verizon does not have you use your name for an email address, you pick one during setup.

I think the whole thing was a cop-out. This has nothing to do with email. He never even got to the part where he could pick his email... WTF... He could not sign up period.

Re: Herman I. Libshitz

He did sign up. The article said he got the Install kit in the mail. It was when he tried to activate the account on his Service Ready date. Thats when you have to pick the user name. He was the one who wanted his last name in his Login/Email name. And because the LOGIN name becomes the Email name It won't let him use any profanity. The whole thing would have worked fine if he used a different Login name. No one would have known the difference. I agree though that there is no reason for you not to be allowed to pick whatever you want. Regardless of Profanity or not. But then what if someone picked Walmart@verizon.net. Walmart could file a complaint. So its not a Black and White issue. Very Very Grey.

Right, and you would piss on their right to not use the name flippantly or irreverently...typical.

My thoughts exactly.

I'll bet he caught it even worse in basic training.

I have a friend of mine at work, his last name is Lunt.

I'll leave you to your own devices as to how he fared in high school....
