BTW - small providers can use either 911enabled or DASH 911, The
setup and monthly costs are pretty reasonable and the setup is easy.

Very similar. I bet there are many uneducated voip providers out there just
itching to spend money just so they can say they spent money on some kind of 911
assistance.
Yes, it's capitalism. But not all capitalism is savoury -- even to all
capitalists.
That said, I don't think Trevor's necessarily harming his reputation or
anything by doing the equivalent of showing a picture of a robbery and
shouting "vigilance!" However, you can't expect that sort of marketing
tactic to sit well with everyone. It's been proven time and time again
that, while it's quite easy to sell things that way, it never makes
people feel good about the purchase.
I agree the method in which it was marketed may not have been...all that
pleasant and probably won't be effective, I just don't think Trevor was due the
personal attack he received.
Eh. It's the Internet. My opinion is, if you can't weather a few
personal attacks, you should stay offline. They abound.
Is it deserving? Probably not. Will it happen time and time again? Of
course.
