“ #Verizon and #Comcast are big profitable companies, but they are not earthshaking giants. If #Anthropic and #OpenAI end up being the Verizons and Comcasts of the next decade, their #shareholders will be looking at huge #losses”

Oh no, #Verizon is threatening to turn our $20 wrist baubles into glorified paperweights by pulling the plug on their underwhelming #app nonsense! 🎉 Apparently, they think it’s hilarious to replace a mediocre app with another that doesn’t even work for half their users. 🙃🎈 Bravo, Verizon, bravo!

ProtoMail has an option turned on by default where it won't download images within an email in order to protect your privacy. In case you didn't know, clickable links - especially image files - identifies YOU and everything you do after you
That means the sender knows that *I* went to a specific web page and everything else that *I* did (when I arrived, how long I spent, all of my mouse clicks, my ISP, etc.)
I've attached an example from a #Verizon email.
The subject line is: "Good news, we've expanded our network for Verizon Home Internet!" Which is clearly clickbait.
Verizon emails are filtered into my Spam folder of course. If Verizon (or anyone) can't convey their message in a written form, then they can go pound sand.
(There is always the option within ProtonMail to manually select 'load remote content' from trusted sources)

Weekly output: Verizon revamps plans, edge and on-device AI in connected homes
I keep saying that the only thing I really want for Father’s Day is a nap. This one has somehow not featured that, but I still can’t complain about how today has gone for me.
6/16/2026: Verizon Wireless Drops 2 Fees, Adds Rewards Programs and ‘Simplicity’ Plan, PCMag
I spent more time quizzing a Verizon publicist about this bundle of announcements than I’d expected because the advance copy of the company’s press release left out so many details–and then I still had to revise the post Tuesday morning with additional information about its new Verizon One bundle of home and mobile broadband.
6/18/2026: AI at the Edge: Smarter Decisions, Less Latency, Unify 2026
The Connectivity Standards Alliance, the trade group behind the Matter standard for connected-home devices, hosted a conference in Austin and saw fit to include me in the proceedings (and to pay me a stipend for my work as a panel moderator). My spot on the program was this panel featuring Felipe Benavides, head of partnerships at Liquid AI; Alan Coleman, chief product officer of Plume; Colin Cureton, product line vice president for home business at Silicon Labs; and Rolf de Vegt, vice president of technical standards at Qualcomm. We spent 45 minutes unpacking what on-device AI models can do for gadgets ranging from light bulbs to dishwashers to thermostats–in particular, about the privacy upsides of sending less data to cloud services.

Honestly, I don’t know why everyone complains about #Netflix prices. I have the cheapest plan (1080p w/ ads - $8.99 normally, I have it through #Verizon along with #HBOMax for $13/mo) and I’ve just finished watching #Apex with ZERO ads. And I’m constantly surprised by the video quality/clarity even with FHD resolution, to the point I don’t even feel the experience would be different enough from 4K to justify anything else.
Even if there are ads they’re usually 15s or less.

tl;dr Thirsty salesperson: Was in the process of setting up new services with #Verizon Business when my brother, who passed away, was in the crossing over stage and I had to cancel my virtual appointment. This thirsty salesperson just couldn't wait. He had the sale. FFS, I reached out to them first which led to me getting this little fecking thirsty salesperson.
Anyway, the covo:

Message from you, Reread the texts. I told you I would contact you when I was ready.

Please don't message me again and thanks for texting while I was with the funeral director planning the arrangements for my older brother., Monday, June 15 2026, 11:13 PM. -

#Verizon sent man a #refurbished phone with #MDM , then deleted his data remotely
Verizon sent one of its customers a "refurbished" phone equipped with a Mobile Device Management (MDM) profile that gave the company remote control over the device. The serious mistake raises questions about Verizon's process for preparing refurbished phones to be sent to customers.
