Never has “all bark and no bite” been more appropriate than news that, just days after Verizon seemingly challenged Google’s free ride of phone companies’ infrastructure, the telecom giant is backing down.

Verizon Communications Chief Executive Ivan Seidenberg retreated from a vice president’s sharp statements panning search giant Google but affirmed the telecom industry’s desire for new revenue from Internet content companies.
