Re: Again with this
Apparently not - but I would love to see the top 10 or 20 content sites hold a conference rebutting these ridiculous claims. Then, I would like to seem them form a pact where they would cut off access from any ISP that tries to extort additional money from them.
Let's see how much "whining" the telcos do when their customers are calling all hours of the day and night bitching about not being able to access Google, Yahoo, eBay, or other sites.
Then, maybe they would realize that they should happy with the ridiculous revenue they earn already. |

said by jdracer47  :Will this get fiber to my home any faster or will it go straight to the investor's pockets? Wait, I know the answer to that one already, I live in a rural area that won't help the bottom line so I will never see fiber. When has any consumers money gone into improvements and upgrades? umm Never. Ya Verizon is slowly deploying Fiber, but how about the other 40 states? If anything, the telcos' should be paying US (the consumer) to even sign up for their service |

Do the telcos realize that without the content providers there won't be any reason to have internet service? Verizon reminds me of a spoiled brat that gets their way or they throw a temper tantrum until someone sticks a pacifier in their mouth. |
