Protection racket

Just received this update from Motorola. It's much subtler than the Verso press releases, but Verso needs to make more noise (check out the 1-for-5 reverse share split announcement). Anyway, I think the underlying message might be the same, linked, as it is, to "providing the ideal architecture for operators to realize new, revenue-generating services while ensuring their subscribers’Quality of Experience (QoE)." I hope what is also being protected is my right to choose applications without interference from my access provider, but I suspect I might be overly optimistic here.
