The downside to their approach is that it only works for sites you actually
have connected to VzB's network. They could just as easily offer the
service to off-net customers similar to what Verisign and Prolexic do, but
for some reason we could never convince the marketing folks to do just
that...
Agreed though, it is super-easy to use and competitively priced.
