FCC Requires 911 on VoIP

Posted by Eric at 5:04 pm. Filed under: General

The FCC just forced the VoIP providers like Vonage to provide 911 service to their customers.

It’s the only reason I don’t use one. With little kids, going to a real 911 dispatcher who knows where you are is critical in an emergency.

I would think that this would not have required government intervention though. It seems that market forces would have driven this soon enough, as there must be thousands of people like me who were just waiting for that one last piece to fall into place.
