    The following is
    attributed to Art Brodsky, communications director for Public
    Knowledge:

    “Verizon should
    be commended for recognizing so quickly the mistake it made in
    proposing a $2 ‘convenience fee’ for its customers who wanted to pay
    their bills in the same way in which they make online purchases all
    the time. Verizon dropped the fee a day after proposing it.

    “Now attention
    can continue to focus on Verizon’s campaign to eliminate competition
    for high-speed Internet access through its joint marketing deal with
    major cable companies. The Justice Department is right to
    investigate that arrangement.”
