| Too Far...
They are going too far with this, with the Patriot Act they already can do all they want without notifying anyone; why would they need a law to do what they have been already doing.
This raises serious privacy concerns, if we still have privacy that is... |

| The simple answer is because they want the VoIP providers to do the leg work and deliver them the calls on a platter, instead of agents having to hack into systems or plant bugs or packet sniffers (more complex than with TDM).
You should not be overly concerned directly with CALEA, the rules are still pretty strict. Besides none of us are doing anything illegal, right? 
The main concern is that CALEA requirements will slow down VoIP growth, might kill smaller providers, and at the end of the day the consumer will pay through the nose for the increased network complexity and regulation compliance. |

What you have to keep in mind is that what is legal today may not be legal tomorrow and we've allowed this Orwellian infrastructure to be built right under our noses. |
