Vonages Wins!
December 31st, 2004 Posted in Main Page
Vonage scored a major victory today when a federal court ruled Minnesota cannot regulate/treat the company as a regular telephone service provider. The decision comes on the heels of the FCC's ruling that Internet telephony falls within its mandate - not the states. The federal court decision is just another chapter in the regulatory process now unfolding in terms of who will regulate Internet telephony - if, in fact, it can be regulated. In Canada, the CRTC is expected to make a decision in early-2005. For a lot more insight and comment on the Vonage/Minnesota ruling, check out Jeff Pulver's blog.
