Totally agree with Hapless on this one. For once, Verizon gets credit for being honest.
credit for being honest, sure.
negative credit for basically saying they really can't care enough about civil liberties or the basic tenants of individual right to privacy this country is founded upon. my Verizon account will be cancelled today.
