Point in case. Dr. Herman I. Libshitz, a retired radiologist and Vietnam veteran gets denied high speed internet by Verizon. The reason? His last name “contains an expletive”. This wasn’t the decision of a single employee, he got the same response as he went up the chain and even told to change his last name.

Perhaps we should declare Verizon as an expletive. Make it a really bad one too, rating up there with the C word. Then let them go through and change their name.
