Re: Verizon is doing the right thing.

Who wants dropped calls or slow Internet? How about higher prices? (Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?) If you want these things, then go ahead and rage against Verizon for managing its network.
This isn't about slow internet .. it's about whether or not it can be called "Internet" when the ISP is blocking or directing consumers' choices of completely lawful applications.

That's not the "Internet," it's more like Prodigy or America Online.

Re: Verizon is doing the right thing.

Of course it's Internet. Just because the device is restricted so that, sensibly, it is not capable of using too many of the network's resources does not mean that it isn't Internet. In fact, it's better Internet than it would be than if it were not managed.
