Verizon Redux

Category: Mobile Phones

I just noticed this disclaimer on Verizon Wireless' site:

Unlimited NationalAccess/BroadbandAccess services cannot be used (1) for uploading, downloading or streaming of movies, music or games, (2) with server devices or with host computer applications, including, but not limited to, Web camera posts or broadcasts, automatic data feeds, Voice over IP (VoIP), automated machine-to-machine connections, or peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing, or (3) as a substitute or backup for private lines or dedicated data connections.

Isn't that service useful. I wonder if they'll provide a useful consumer product. Probably not because of the RIAA and the DMCA.
