Verizon hates you and wishes you harm.

I'm about to enter the bloody fray for a smartphone, but of course I want
to put my own build on it.  I'm seriously considering switching to
T-Mobile, just because I think their attitudes toward My Kind might be a
little less hostile.  Verizon appears to believe that they own your phone
and its contents. They have a history of acting on that belief.
