NBSP - In article , VOIP News says: http://zdnet.com.com/2100-1103-5216639.html By Evan Hansen CNET News.com Handing a setback to emerging Internet phone services, the New York State Public Service Commission on Wednesday ruled that Vonage Holdings is a telephone company and thus subject to state regulation. In a statement announcing its decision, the agency sought to soften the blow, saying that it nevertheless hoped to apply "only minimal regulations to ensure that it does not interfere with the rapid, widespread deployment of new technologies." New York is the latest state to weigh in on regulation of so-called voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services, a hot-button policy issue that has some local officials worried about potential tax losses as the technology grows in popularity. Full story at: http://zdnet.com.com/2100-1103-5216639.htmlI have to wonder how many 'favors' Verizon provided to members of thePSC.[TELECOM Digest Editor's Note: Well, if Verizon is the typical Bellcompany, their employees and managers belong to the very same countryclubs, churches and other social organizations as the members of thecommission. There is a joke around Topeka (our state capitol) whichsays the Kansas Commissioners 'eat out of the hands' of Southwestern Belland Sprint (the old United Tel); belong to the same country clubs andthe same churches, etc. The Commissioners hate that 'joke' and insistit is not true. They say that in fact they hate Bell with a passion,but you could not prove it by me, except they have been very generousand liberal in the application of the rules where Prairie Stream andGage are concerned.
