Verizon Kills FTP access to your personal website.

[Kenn Marks]

If you are taking advantage of Verizon's offer of FREE personal web
hosting using mysite.verizon.net and were using iWeb to create your
web sites you will now be forced to use their web development tools
from Intuit or find an alternative place to host your site or host it
from your home computer.

"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."

Sounds like good security. FTP is a great way to get user's passwords compromised.
