Are we sure that Verizon doesn't support SOPA? I'm not seeing them on the list but I still find it hard to believe.

- praxeologist 15y agoYeah, I find this hard to believe too. My perception is that Verizon is somewhat less corrupt than Comcast overall though. When I lived in Baltimore City, Comcast pulled off some maneuvers with the City Council to keep their monopoly and keep FioS out. I'll be moving soon, so look at Verizon and smaller vendors if I can.
- comcastic 15y agoI work for Comcast and I can tell you that yes, Comcast has lost what they consider to be a 'few' subscribers in the big scheme of things. Not sure if you know it or not, but they have already 'bought' NBC/Universal, and they have already partnered with Dish and Direct TV. Comcast is the primary cable and internet provider in most markets. However, they've already positioned themselves to take over or purchase any competitors when the time is right with all these partnerships. Even Verizon is not safe. They have recently 'partnered' with their cellphone/wireless division too. Wonder why? In the end, they are all the same and the majority of the people that this will put a hinderance on are the non higher-up employees and the end users. However, if this is something you are passionate about, go for it. It's your right to boycott and not utilize the services of anyone or any place you do not agree with. Unlike the federal government that tries to force you to utilize a service or embrace a policy or standard...sorry rant for a different day.
