Yes they do.  But I bet you're subject to all of Comcast's restrictions and
terms.

Verizon DSL offers subscribers Yahoo!.  Not the free stuff, but the paid
stuff.  I assume it's to transition out of the email/newsgroup/etc business.

It's very different from DSL via Speakeasy, mv.com, etc where you have
different terms and restrictions from Verizon DSL.


So just because they're not forced to, doesn't mean they won't.
