[Asterisk-biz] 911 order is released

Well, just going on that paragraph it would indeed mean you're exempt if 
you don't require broadband.  That would theoretically mean that any 
Asterisk connection with allow=all is exempt.  You'd want to get a 
lawyer to go through the whole document though as some clauses can be 
outweighed by others.

The crazy thing is that it now opens up the American 911 service to the 
whole world.

What is the VoIP provider going to do with my call if I call 911 from 
New Zealand?  What about if 10,000 people from Eastern Europe DDOS the 
E.911 service?
