Verizon Continues Proud History Of DenialThey've been selling under-served rural markets, while passing franchise reform laws that lets them ignore wide swaths of under-served America for the foreseeable future.
1st - Unless the laws of the US have changed, Verizon has not passed any laws that I am aware of. They may have lobbied for some changes to franchise regulations in some states, but that is about it.
You are right, that is misleading. Is should have stated they BOUGHT laws to prevent local people from bypassing corporate greed and enacting municipal systems and to bypass local oversight.
