Verizon Advanced Web Search….Please stop!!!

Posted in Business by Chavvon on the November 5th, 2007

Since late October, I’ve noticed that my verizon fios Internet service is MUCH slower. Pages error out, things take longer to load, etc. Then one day I typed in an incorrect URL and got a Verizon search page. Verizon is watching all website entries and redirecting users to their own search page when a URL is typed in wrong. This is making the service much slower and it’s enough for me to start looking for another provider. I temporarily changed the DNS servers to OpenDNS.com and that’s fixed the problem…..until they do something else.
