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. |
