- yanw 16y agoHow about the much more accurate reports on his very issue by other outlets such as the Washington post and even cnet: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/posttech/2010/08/google_and_verizon_have_come.html http://voices.washingtonpost.com/posttech/2010/08/google_and... http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-08-04/google-verizon-are-said-to-have-reached-deal-on-how-to-handle-web-traffic.html http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-08-04/google-verizon-are-... http://news.cnet.com/8301-31021_3-20012703-260.html http://news.cnet.com/8301-31021_3-20012703-260.html And since the rest of the internet seems to hang on their every word and echoing it all over the place they should carry some of responsibility to correct things.
