Stopping VoIP – Nokia Should Rethink Their Slogan

Written by Richard Blanchard on November 27th, 2006. Posted in USB News, VoIP

VoIP BlockerNokia has set out to stop the VoIP net-neutrality trend by launching a platform allowing communication operators (phone companies) to block VoIP and other specific types of data services, i.e. peer-to-peer systems. The ability is enabled via a platform upgrade to Nokia’s Flexi Intelligent Service Node or (ISN). With the explosion of VoIP and now mobile VoIP with affordable high-speed data access we’ll see more of this as telecomm tries to control their network traffic loads and their return on investment. Damn.
