All,
As quoted from the article;
"The US Court of Appeals in Boston ruled April 11 that
Verizon Communications Inc. can charge per-minute fees for calls to
local numbers that dial-up
users need to connect to the Internet -- in much the
same way that they charge for long-distance or other calls."
Also quoted from the article;
"Verizon claims it is owed more than $65 million by Global
NAPs. The court did not rule on damages, but Verizon cut off Global
NAPs's access to its
network, effectively shutting down Internet service for
customers of dial-up providers like MegaNet of Fall River, which had to
find another company to
supply emergency connections for its approximately 7,500
dial-up subscribers."
