Are you seriously suggestion that offering the GPL'd binaries for downloading http://www2.verizon.net/micro/actiontec/actiontec.asp without even slight mentioning of the GPL and NOT providing access to the source code from the same place is okay provided one puts some hints where to locate the source code (from third party) in its support database?
What is "the same place" when it comes to a website? And that firmware is being distributed as upgrades to a router; the customer purchasing that router will already have received this Verizon-branded manual <http://support.actiontec.com/doc_files/MI424WR_Rev._E_User_Manual_20.8.0_v3_GPL.pdf> and an accompanying disk containing full GPL information. Your attempts to be "holier than the FSF" to demonstrate non-compliance with the GPL when there is actually clear compliance are quite pathetic.
