Just received a notice from Verizon that starting June 24th all but the big
"8" (which doesn't include ALT) will be blocked.


For what I read, they are not blocking anything. What they are doing is
not providing a service that they had previously provided.


It's not that simple. They've been pressured by the New York attorney
general into enforcing government censorship. No need to go into
details, google the new stories.
