Verizon trying to block open access?

Silicon Alley Insider: Verizon Wireless (VZ, VOD) Sues FCC To Keep Airwaves Closed

AlleyInsider has a good catch on a lawsuit Verizon Wireless filed a few days ago. It's intended to block open access in the court. But it's real intent is to put a cloud over the auction and supress bidding, and thereby make it more likely that the auction will fail to meet the reserve prices. And -- guess what? -- get the open access rule withdrawn.
