Following, is a portion of an advisory notice that one of my sisters just emailed to me:
.....................................
Dear Verizon Internet User:
As part of our ongoing enhancements to the online customer experience, Verizon continues to ensure security for our Internet customers.* As a result of this ongoing effort, Verizon Online is making modifications to the Internet access provided to you.* These modifications will occur on August 21, 2011.* For security reasons, Verizon will no longer allow users to FTP their HTML files to the personal web site Verizon offers.*
Verizon recommends that current FTP users download their files prior to August 21, 2011 to prevent any data loss.*
...............................
Verizon is the Internet service provider, for the both of us, and my sister thought that I might know how the notice might affect us. I didn't know how to answer that, which is why I came here. Neither of us has a website, and I don't know what FTP means. My guess would be something like File Transfer Protocol, but - even if that guess is correct - I don't know what it would mean for us.
If anyone else has received such a message, from Verizon, would you please spell it out for us?
Advanced thanks.
