Verizon Does Something Dumb (and then walks it back)

DateFriday, October 10, 2008 at 10:05PM

Yesterday Verizon Wireless said they were going to charge .03 "tax" on content providers sending messages.

Today they realized that by charging 3 cents a message to content providers they would be losing 15 cents per message they charge the subscriber.

So they hedged and seem to have walked it back a bit.
