Yea they've been getting more and more ridiculous/controlling over the past year. Sadly, they know they're the best and that most ppl will just deal with their raised rates, new fees, and stupid policies....

"Big red is reporting some green, green earnings. Verizon today posted its second quarter financials, and it seems pretty happy about the whole thing, thanks to $28.6 billion in total operating revenues -- a 3.7 percent increase over this time last year. The carrier's consolidated operating income, meanwhile, hit $5.7 billion for the quarter, up from $4.9 billion in Q2 2011. In Wireless, the company racked up $15.8 billion in service revenues (up 7.3 percent from last year) and $6.9 billion in data revenues (up 18.5 percent). The second quarter saw the addition of 1.2 million retail net customers, for a total of 94.2 million by the end of the financial period. Also, according to the numbers, smartphones now make up half of the carrier's postpaid customer phone base -- that's up three percent from last quarter."

Ridiculous... If that nonsense continues, rest assured Big Red will continue to be a controlling jerk as normal... Yay for us!

It's unfortunate that Linus decided not to switch the kernel to GPLv3. If he had, then locked bootloaders would be legally impossible.

Part of me agrees. Especially in the matter of bootloaders. But I think Mr. T has done as close to perfect a job of licensing the kernel as a human can possibly manage, given the current bullsh^H^H^H^H^H^Hlegal system. (I did NOT say 'justice system')
