In terms of FCC involvement, not sure if they should be or not, but why doesn't verizon charge the customer for the roaming charges. . .
As far as I know, cell phone companies have never forced customers to change plans. Changing of the plan would be the only way Verizon would be allowed to start charging them roaming fees, since their current plan says no roaming fees.
Since they can't force them to change plans, their only option is to drop them. It's likely they could attempt to get a new contract, but Verizon might not have a plan that accounts for so much roaming... so they might say no.
Right, not sure what your point is? This does nothing to negate my point and only reinforces it.
And what exactly is your point?
That the FCC is wrong in saying that Wireless broadband is an adequate replacement for wired broadband.
Really? How does this prove that point? If anything it says the opposite (but really it doesn't say anything for either side). The article says that Verizon said that some customers are using in excess of 1 TB of data (we're assuming over wireless) while roaming. That sounds like a pretty big chunk.
The customer quoted for only using 50 GB, still a pretty good chunk even over 4 devices for wireless. It's clear that wireless data is at least available in these affected areas, to the point that Verizon wants to dump these customers.

One would hope so.
Seems like one branch of government, at least for this issue, has their head on straight.

I wonder if the companies allowed to take LifeLine subsidies and his bank account have anything in common.

The question is, which tool is worse? The one with the orangutan hair or Pai. . .

How is that possible? Does FCC have that type of power to enforce individual states to comply?

Not in the least. Now do you think that actually matters to anyone?
