I read the article that was in the Washington Post listing the the vapid spoutings of John Thorne from Verizon and frankly it kind of ticked me off to the point I wrote to our two senators as well as our congressman from Nevada

Below is the text of the email I sent along with the link to the primary article on Verizon.

If you are of a similar opinion - I urge you to also contact your Representatives and Senators and let them know what you think about these packets of lies and Verizon's blatant attempt
at thievery.

Saw this coming with the very first implementation of QoS (quality of service) supported in Cisco routers back in what... 1996? This would allow the telcos to turn the internet back into prodigy, compuserv, genie, and all the other old pre-internet "online services". I don't think congress is going to buy it... and if they did, it would take some serious racketeering for ISPs to clamp down on consumers in such a fashion. Perhaps this is what google is doing with their supposed network infrastructure purchasing... insurance...
