I know that sounds a bit harsh..  Verizon is inserting a unique ID into web (HTTP) requests sent from it’s wireless devices.  Why?  It’s believed for Ad $$, maybe more.  What’s the problem with that?  It violates your privacy, ignores cookie settings, you cannot opt out or delete it and it changes a request you send to the internet.  Not cool Verizon, not cool at all.  Finally a reason to be glad I use AT&T wireless.  Until we find out they could be doing the same thing.
