Re: Verizon

Google needs to "pay up" on their bribes a bit better it seems if the refs are in ATT and Verizon's court. You'd think Google would have a team of lobbyists on its side, too.

I'm sure they do, but they are new to the lobbying game; the Ma Bell companies are old hats at lobbying, and have been funding many of these politicians before there was something called the internet.

Very true. Hard to "Buy or Bribe" your way into an entrenched market. That takes serious capital and I wonder if Google is ready to dump that level of cash to make these folks see their side of the light.

Why do you think Google uses the 'people' to pressure entrenched corporations to move?
