I have some fun tonight on Verizons behalf for being so stupid to buy Yahoo for almost 5 billion dollars. Yahoo's founder tonight probably wishes he sold to Microsoft for 50 billion when he had the chance. Winner Microsoft.. I also talk about the absolute stupidity of the DNC and what they allowed to happen to them, no politics just

In September of 2015, Blizzard Entertainment added a silence penalty to Heroes of the Storm. (Blizzard will soon be adding a silence penalty to World of Warcraft as well.)

Verizon made a bad business decision before and consumers chose wisely now they are going to be forced to pay up or have their accounts canceled. Verizon is going to invoke the nuclear option.
