Verizon's 'Rule The Air' ads

Verizon's signal. There to ensure the most powerful transmitter is you. Rule the Air.




At a time when Verizon is entering into negotiations with Google to end Internet freedom/Net Neutrality this commercial could /only/ be aimed at confusing this issue.

One of the comments sums it up nicely:
It's a very disingenuous message: Verizon have just struck a deal with Google, which gives them the right to prioritise how data is sent over their wireless networks. If this advert is taken at face value, it would seem that they are fighting _against_ this kind of behaviour. The advert makes Verizon sound like a company which supports net-neutrality .. when in reality, they're trying to ensure net-neutrality doesn't survive.

I had no idea that particular forum even existed at this site.

Is this place really busy enough to have that many forums? Seems it just disperses a lot of stuff.

Either that or I just don't have enough free time on my hands to go fishing through all of them. :roll: Like I could be any more unemployed than I am.
