We've got a long way to go yet.
But here are a few things so far.
You don't NEED a safe harbor. You don't HAVE to follow anyone's industry
standard to be compliant.
You don't need a TTP.
What you DO have to do is collect specific data. How you do so is up to
you.
You do have to do it without tipping off the suspect.
You do have to be able to verify it's authenticity at a later date.
You do have to do as much as you can to help LEA. If you do not follow *a*
standard, you've got to try to do anything that LEA asks of you. If you
follow a standard then you only have to do what is required by the standard.
CALEA is reasonable just like emissions on power plants is reasonable.
Mark, when you were a mechanic you had to dispose of old oil, solvents,
brake dust etc. in specific ways that were more expensive than just dumping
it in the parking lot or down the drain. The costs are sometimes
transferred to the end user because it's REASONABLE for the business
operator (or home owner or whatever) to take some responsibility for making
this a better country. No shame in that.
By the time we (wispa) get done with CALEA we'll have a low/no cost option
for the average company. Some of you will likely have to redesign your
networks a bit. That won't be all bad as you'll also have more ability to
understand what's happening on your network and to stop things like
broadcast storms etc.
You guys really do have to stop panicking! You're scaring the stuffing out
of too many people. This isn't a bad law and it's doesn't have to be
horribly expensive.
MOST of us will likely have hybrid plans in place. Some of the work we'll
do ourselves with our routers, servers etc. Some of the work we'll contract
out to people like Bearhill.

Those prices don't make me happy either. I have not heard an official
anything yet from the wispa calea group. I don't believe they are done
with their activities.
It would be good to hear what they have to say concerning methods of
compliance and costs.
I read a doc that said a 15k isp could be 150k it also said it knew some
isps had meager budgets and they said they will deal with that. I would
assume they were not going to bankrupt a small isp.
