I think the reason verizon isn't playing along is that they know that if they do, they will end up footing the bill for being the police.
I disagree. When the Post-911 illegal wiretapping started Verizon resisted then too. Of course they were bullied into it anyway but they were the only one of the big dogs to put up a fight even. You could not call that a profit-driven move. One could argue that it was for PR purposes but I generally think that Verizon is one of the few that believes in civil rights and privacy at some level. How deep that goes is the question...

 oh oh ... illegal wiretapping. Not engaging into the conversation about the wiretaps that saved Brooklyn Bridge in NYC (among many other things). Verizon is not doing it for customers, they are doing it because once you agree to something you will end up owning it. And they dont want to own it.
