It feels dirty to agree with an ISP on something. But even the worst corporations are on the right side of something from time to time I suppose.

I had Verizon threatened to shut down my internet. I had been receiving notices for close to a decade via email, I assumed they were all toothless. And that was true in the past

I just called the Verizon copyright office and told them that it wasn't me and I would change my Wi-Fi password 😂

It was suspiciously easy as if they really don't care and are just trying to be compliant

I got a VPN and no longer have to deal with it

I feel like most people don't even check their ISP email anymore. Why use that instead of the Gmail you've had for 18 years.

No they sent it to my main email, I don't even know if I have a Verizon email address
