It makes you think what Verizon's motive is. Are they really trying to be nice guys?

Nah. It just makes economic sense. They've made a huge investment in FIOS and they want to reap the returns. The best way to do so is to have more lines in use. The more ISPs that offer the service, the more customers that will sign up and use their service in one way or another.

For Verizon, it's a win-win situation.
Who cares?

It's a business. Verizon wants to make money, and the only thing that can come from this is more competition and a better deal for the consumer. If Verizon is doing this (I don't care WHY) they are HELPING me by letting me pick the best deal for myself. I won't be stuck with Package A or Package B but instead will have different options from different ISPs.

1. The news item was incredulous about Verizon doing something like this without their hand being forced.

2. Your points don't disagree with mine.

3. Uh?

I viewed your post as being sceptical about Verizon. Next time please quote my entire reply, not just the "Who cares?" It makes it look like I don't care about them sharing.. But in reality I am saying that I don't care what their INTENTIONS are but that they are doing GOOD for us.
