VOIP to be Made Illegal in India

Posted by samzenpus on from the the-internet-is-not-for-talking dept.

Krish writes "Providers like Skype, Yahoo, Net2phone, Dialpad, etc. will not be able to offer VOIP in India under the proposed govt. clampdown. BPOs and other call centers will face the axe if they use any of the VOIP services provided by the above companies. It is not clear if this clampdown will affect regular home users."

    There needs to be something like a math problem presented as a slightly distorted image whenever you try to post on Slashdot. That way only those with reasonable intelligence can post.

    And that's exactly why we have strong cryptography.

    Government: You're illegally calling people.
    You: No, that's e-mail.
    Government: Oh.

    If VOIP is illegal, only criminals will have VOIP.
