Shame on you Verizon Wireless, that’s something I don’t often say since you are a huge part of my life, what with my fathers employment, and my cell service coming from them after all.
But shame for doing this, and while I agree with “legal authorities” that VZW is well within its rights in doing this, it doesn’t mean that it is right. If this was a program where text messages went to all customers on a mandatory basis then blocking it entirely would be appropriate.
Instead however you decided to duct tape the mouth of a group who simply wanted to communicate with like minded people, not convert those who disagreed. Shame. When there was so many good and valid reasons to accept this, you chose the cowards way out to avoid controversy, well you let this customer down.
Denying this program is something I just don’t understand, at all.
