My
questions:
Is the
FCC within it's charter to make this mandate? It seems many government
agencies are busy testing their rule-making boundaries these days.
(broadcast flag anyone?)
Aren't
there still areas of the country with phone service that does not have
911?
My
comments:
This
is a poke-in-the-eye to VOIP providers and shakeout attempt. It says,
"VOIP providers: If you are serious put your money where your mouth is and pay
for the facilities to provide this service."
The
FCC will try to level the playing ground for VOIP v. more traditional phone
services without taking into account all the underlying facilities and services
required to provide VOIP.
