Squawk Box October 2nd, Skype's Chris Libertelli's world view of Regulation. Conference call organized by Alwaysoncarl

Agenda
Skype is the first major communication application that like the Internet has no geographic boundaries, while connecting to the PSTN. Regulation world wide is still associated with country specific rules. What are the lessons that Skype can teach us all about the way to navigate government rules? Are issues like net neutrality national or international issues? What makes a good regulatory framework?

Isn't the overarching problem that we (telcos in particular) haven't separated the service from the transport (utility) network.

James Body said:
So - does that mean that if you only support outbound calling (not inbound calling) - then you do not have to provide emergency calling

FCC definition says <br/>""An interconnected Voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) service is a service<br/>that: (1) enables real-time, two-way voice communications; (2) requires a<br/>broadband connection from the user's location; (3) requires Internet<br/>protocol-compatible customer premises equipment (CPE); and (4) permits users<br/>generally to receive calls that originate on the public switched telephone<br/>network and to terminate calls to the public switched telephone network."

Why did they decide to refuse to support emergency calling? Is this decision solely based on technical crirea - or is there something more to this?

Don't you think it's a bit unfair to conflate the TOM Skype story with the story of encryption and "back doors"?
