Oh, you mean the FET Tax and the "Regulatory Recovery Tax"?
What is the Regulatory Recovery Fee?
The Regulatory Recovery Fee is $1.50 per phone number. This is a fee that Vonage charges its customers to recover required costs of Federal and State Universal Service Funds as well as other related fees and surcharges. Your total Regulatory Recovery Fee reflects a $1.50 surcharge for every phone number you have including primary voice lines, second lines, fax lines, Toll Free Plus numbers and Virtual Phone Numbers.
Now, what was that about us not getting taxed?
Uhh.. SCUSE me.. who gives a shit about child labor laws? This is an interview about the linux 2.4 release dude.
And why would Linus be considered EVIL for this is beyond me...
I'm confused but then again, I guess I should know better than to expect logic from/.ers.
AMEN!!! I LOVE the vonage service!!! I cut my phone bill by more than HALF when I switched over to Vonage! 500 minutes free long distance, HUGE regional area which just happens to cover the people that I talk to the most! I LOVE IT!!!!
And the Virtual Phone number service is REALLY REALLY slick! I now have a local phone number for most of my family!
As said, the only down side is that when the power goes out or you lose your broadband connection, down goes the phone. That's why I have a cell phone.:)
Of course I am. Oh, whoops.. I work out of my house... well... I guess I need to monitor myself and make sure that I don't do any non work related browsing 24x7 then.;)
