Seems like Google really wants those 700MHz it didn’t get. Google claims that FCC should drop Verizon’s right of bid as they will use it against the strict open access rules that FCC set.

According to the report, Verizon will force customers to either use devices that are bought from them on the 700MHz, while devices from other networks will not work on this 700MHz spectrum, that if I understand it correctly.

“Verizon believes it may force customers who want to access the open platform using a device not purchased from Verizon to go through ‘Door No. 1,’ while allowing customers who obtain their device from Verizon access through ‘Door No. 2.,’” Google writes. “[The] position would completely reverse the meaning of the rule such that the open access condition would apply to none of Verizon’s customers.”
