Verizon vs. Netflix/Amazon: The Truth Comes Out

I could see how Verizon slowing down connection speeds could be a major issue for people who actually have work to do, but people are always going to complain about their internet services. Internet connectivity is a necessary evil in the current times and probably will be forever. Maybe this is a sign from a higher power (not like God, but like a CEO) that people need to stop binge-watching Dexter and do something productive. I'm also not exactly sure what AWS is -- I'm assuming it is something like Google Drive where you can store documents and such. I'll brush up on this technology.

That being said, I do not believe this is fair whatsoever. If we are paying you, as a customer, we have the right to what you claim, fast internet/download speeds.

The common man cannot do anything about it, unfortunately. All I can really say is that I'm glad I don't have Verizon FiOS, although Frontier is not much better.

I think that it's almost scary that these providers think they can pull the wool over customers' eyes. This is a major ethics no-no.

But, as people have posted in the comments section under the article, this is NOT illegal. It just is not what the public wants to hear.
