I realize that CALEA is primarily geared towards traditional wiretapping (esp. pen register), but given the machinations of other organaizations (which have also mobilzed law enforcement) such as the MPAA and the RIAA, one might also surmise that this also seems to be desired for not just VoIP services.... - ferg -- sjk <[email protected]> wrote: We all pay the bill with higher equipment costs, the maintenance of configurations, and possible storage costs. CALEA was bound to include VoIP services - given the definition telecom carrier in the act; however, as I recall -- and I may be wrong -- when CALEA was first passed the carriers were given tax breaks and subsidies to implement changes. Is such financial help being offered today? --sjk -- "Fergie", a.k.a.
