Verizon has sent a cease & desist letter:

If they've resorted to legal threats it's obvious they don't have a leg to stand on.

Nonsense. Resorting to legal means does NOT mean you are in the wrong. It may just mean that Netflix is lying thru their teeth and Verizon knows it.

Or that you are tired of being poked and don't see the short term PR scuffle worth taking it anymore.
It's put up or shut up time, Reed, stop acting like a little kid.

Here it sure does.

The most factual Verizon has been is simply crying about how unfair life is, and just why, why can't they charge everyone on the Internet money. Bandwidth is sooo expensive and life is sooo unfair. We can't live and make record profits like this! No one is paying our bills. Waaah.

(There you go, I had a go at the rhetoric that ISP supporters use.)

Yup, it's time for Lowell to realize that his customers actually deserve and demand the service they're paying for.

That really doesn't help your argument... A legal action does not imply wrong or right and actually might be good for consumers since the discovery phase might make public some of the actual data that would show us what's really going on.

Although it generally indicates that they don't want Netflix talking! Remember the biggest problem with NSL abuse? That if it was happening, no one could legally know...
