Clever, agile, and very ingenious and all-around open-source affirmative

Well a government mandate would make the "Big Boys actually implement it."

Let me spoof NSA with DHS ANI and visa versa using WiFi and a hacked
asterisk box.

E911 was mandated and is semi functional, the government just has to
step in. They only step in when there are votes on the line or money
(and occasionally public safety, usually for PR reasons)

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

come on at least try to think it through. How are you going to pass
the signatures for calls not originating via IP? call setup times just
get slower, and packets get bigger.

That is probably the ticket, indeed.

But my guess is that the most intensive pressure is going to come from
the lobbying efforts of ILECs, as the same catch up to the fact that an
increasing number of VoIP calls are being terminated into their networks
from "who knows" and presented as originating from anywhere, throwing a
wrench into their finely billing and OSS processes, honed over numerous
decades. VoIP termination threatens to render partially meaningless
their immensely complicated tariffs and service type distinctions...
intra-LATA local, intra-LATA rated ("LD"), real inter-LATA LD (IXC),
many stipulations of interconnection agreements, associated regulations...

I don't get why you or anyone thinks we need a solution to this. Just
because something has capacity for exploitation doesn't mean we need
the government to step in and define an implementation that removes
the exploitation. Someone else on this list is convinced that there
are existing laws against it with penalties (I assume) for violation.
This is pretty standard for any offenses against others: theft assault
murder etc. Asking the government to solve this issue, and enforce a
solution would be like wanting them to enforce your ISP to check all
emails leaving their clients to ensure they are actually coming from
their subscribers. Looks great on paper, and sure it would cut down
on spam, but are you ready to bend over and take that up the.....

Dear god am I the only person on this list who thinks the government
(especially the US gov) is the last entity that we want solving issues
and enforcing implementations? I know they have great track record
and are really good at that sort of thing...... Leave them exactly
where they are good at. Defining when it is wrong, and giving those
that don't obey the smack down, but please don't go inviting them into
play big brother.

OK, what is your home number?

What happens when you are carted off to Guantanamo Bay by big brother,
while being denied due process?

Don't you know that the telcos have been in bed with big brother since
the at least the 50s and they invented the internet.

Have you heard of Echelon and Carnivore? Come on now. This has major
implications far more than stealing some credit card numbers, cash, or
bandwidth. It just hasn't happened yet.....

No, you are not alone. The government is generally ill-equipped to keep
pace with innovation in an intelligent way or be charged with any
implementation.
