Verizon Pledges No More Throttling First Responders’ Data
The LA Times has reported that Verizon has announced that it will no longer impose data restrictions on first responders on the West Coast and in Hawaii. The news comes in the wake of a massive backlash generated by the announcement that Verizon had been throttling the data of firefighters from the Santa Clara County Fire Department. In addition to this announcement, the mobile carrier has also said that it will be rolling out a new plan for first responders which aims to address these issues.
