Verizon, Fiber Or Die?
dynamator writes "I live about 550 meters from my Verizon central office. I pay for their higher-tier 'Power Plan' DSL service, which boasts 3 Mbps down and 758 Kbsp up. For the past year, I've enjoyed excellent performance on this line. However, this past month Verizon has been hooking up my neighbors with FiOS, their new fiber-to-the-home system, and guess what, my connection speed and dependability have taken a nosedive. What can I do to build the case that this is really happening? Will anyone, least of all Verizon, care? Are they making me a fiber offer I can't refuse?" We discussed a few times last year what Verizon may be up to.
Funny, I've been doing that for nearly 10 years on DSL.........
It's either on the beat or off the beat, it's that easy.
I moderate therefore I rule!

You're really quite a dick.
This from the man who produced the barely readable post with random capitalizations, horrendous punctuation, significant errors and the chain of thought of a gerbil or speed?
I may agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to face the consequences of saying it.

Recently? You must have stopped coming around after signing up.
Thanks for the heads up there! This has been known for three years and you suck.
