Verizon Blocks Google Wallet on New Smart phone


 Verizon Blocks Google Wallet on New Smart phone
            Verizon asked google NOT to include a new app on their line of smart phones. The app is called google wallet and is designed to help users make payments, redeem digital coupons and earn loyalty points with merchants, redeem digital coupons and earn loyalty points with merchants. Verizon has not stated why it does not want the app available on the phones. Not making a statement as to why they don’t want the app is a little scary, because google is counting on this app to get them in the business demographic. It is a very bold move by verizon and almost makes me question the app more. Do you think that verizon should be allowed to essentially filter the internet on their type of phones? Do you think google should comply with verizons request to block this app from their android operating system?
