brokenhalo User ID: 471920 United States 11/03/2015 05:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Are you really using Verizon email services? That's stupid on so many levels. Quoting: The Årtist Never EVER EVER use an email service from a company you have to pay to access. What happens if you use Verizon email and you switch providers? Bye bye email, that's what happens. Sure you might not care at first but you'll lose your contacts and have to tell everyone your new email address. People are soooo scared about their email. Well, if you are using anything other than an encrypted or iCloud account you can forget about anything. Comcast, Charter, Brighthouse, Time Warner, ATT, Verizon, Sprint, EVERYONE like that is required by law to keep everything you do on record for a minimum of 18 months for government access if needed. Look, I get it, I understand the desires and needs for secure and private email. It is important for various reasons. But you can hands down bet your ass that if you're using someone elses email, THEY HAVE ACCESS TO IT, period. If you are concerned about email privacy and whatever and you're not using your own email server in your own home then you are doing it wrong. Bottom line, unless you have an email server in your home that's managed by yourself you have zero argument about privacy and security. What I mean is you can jump up and down and bitch and moan and whine and complain all you want, you are still on SOMEONE ELSES system. You live by their rules and as long as you continue to use it you are actually reinforcing their behavior. You can find out how to set up an email server using an old POS computer online. That's pretty drastic - if privacy is what you want, then there is encryption which will provide privacy and security. GPG is free and easy. I'm a Cyperpunk - Ask me what it means sometime. ------- “All the speed he took, all the turns he'd taken and the corners he'd cut in Night City, and still he'd see the matrix in his sleep, bright lattices of logic unfolding across that colorless void...” -- William Gibson, Neuromancer |

If this story with Verizon is true then this will become a very valuable tool. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 70724986 United States 11/04/2015 06:44 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is bullshit. I pay Verizon a lot of money every month for phone, tv and internet. I do not pay them to interfere with my communications to my own family or to my business colleagues. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70643923 So leave them. Easy. Yep, and I will be doing just that when my contract is up. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 70295170 United States 11/04/2015 06:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | All business subscriber based emails must contain an unsubscribe link. So then according to how this is being portrayed, they are in a sense banning all business emails including their own. Something doesn't add up here. Obviously people are confusing links with hyperlinks. A hyperlink is a hidden link. Where you click on a word or picture to get taken to a site. Ok so links are still allowed. But still, what they are doing is wrong. And if this is in fact 100% true we all must boycott Verizon. I think this policy change could get us out of our contracts. |
