On Things and Other Perspectives
Verizon has decided that it knows how best to redirect my typos – right to a Verizon yahoo page.
I didn’t ask for this nor do I want it. It wasn’t clear in any TOS that I saw, but may be in there.
This is why we have class action lawsuits. If Verizon wants tort reform they should understand that this is violation of my privacy and all kinds of other things.
Net Neutrality is under attack. Hope the FCC or somebody does something.

So you think a lawsuit for a redirect is justified? Sounds kinda silly to me. I get redirected, I go oopps and hit my home page icon, easy simple. I might file a lawsuit that they don’t make an Armani suit for a fat guy like me tho.
Oh yea to fully disclose things, I am a former Fios employee who left after 2.5 years so if you want to know more about Fios than u need to, feel free to email me.

and see whats happening in Tampa Bay people can see what past and present employees think…..It’s a must read, names and private office numbers of the great Verizon staff. It tells you where to picket also.
I am a current Cablevision customer, have been with Cablevision for about 18 years, I’ve had some problems with Cable throughout the years, but that’s to be expected. Now Fios is available in Brooklyn, and they have some good offers, would you recommend my switching over? I am an avid television watcher, and use the internet mainly just to write emails and to surf the net. Please advise if yu do have any comments. Thank you.
I’ve been happy with the Fios TV offering. I had Charter Cable and the picture quality was ok most of the time, but was often terrible for big events with big blocks of the screen freezing up.
My favorite was DirecTv. They had a great picture here. I switched to get a better deal with Charter and got stuck in a multi-year contract.
I went with Fios for the internet speed – which is really impressive. I don’t know if I would have switched to them if I didn’t need the bandwidth – I probably would have gone back to DirecTV.
