Anything that claims to be "telephone voice service" is subject to all the PUC regulations that pertain to 911 access for emergency services (medical, fire, police). For connection at a fixed (non-mobile) location, this means that the customer must provide, and the carrier must maintain and forward to the (E)911 service, the physical address of the endpoint. The carrier must pay the monthly fee (tax) for (E)911 service; many carriers add this as a line item on the customer's bill.

Now she's charged... [Boston news] Mass. lawmaker hopes to change wiretapping law after alleged domestic violence victim charged Plymouth, Mass - As a Massachusetts state lawmaker outlined his reasons for updating the state wiretapping law to allow victims of domestic violence to record their abusers, the case that is helping drive the proposed changes was before a judge in Plymouth Tuesday. Alex Fopiano was in court today as his lawyer asked the judge to dismiss the criminal charges against him. He is accused of attempting to suffocate his wife, Shauna Fopiano, with a pillow. .... But it's charges against Shauna that are driving a lawmaker on Beacon Hill to take action. She was criminally charged with eight counts of illegal wiretapping for making secret recordings of her husband, her alleged abuser. In a deal approved earlier this month, the charges will be dismissed in six months as long as she commits no other crimes. ====== rest: https://www.wcvb.com/article/5-investigates-lawmaker-hopes-to-change-wiretapping-law/40592734 _____________________________________________________ Knowledge may be power, but communications is the key dannyb@panix.com [to foil spammers, my address has been double rot-13 encoded]
