Re: Screw Verizon

It's called municipal fiber deployment, taxpayer funded.
Get it started, you have a democratic governer who spends money right, get on the wire in NJ!

Re: Screw Verizon

Well to be honest I can understand where VZ is coming from. If federal and local governments put the same restrictions on VZ fiber as they do on VZ copper then there is no point in trying to deploy the technology because it would force VZ to share the lines it deployed with rivals who mostly likely won't pay enough to help off-set the cost of purchasing and laying down the lines.

If I were the President at VZ, I'd do the same thing.

US		 Gov. James McGreevey doesn't seem to want to respond lately. Wrote him a letter about this though...
