Is a competent *nix wizard going to write your CALEA policy that you
have to submit to the FCC in a couple of weeks? Almost every person
posting on this list so far is harping on the LI requirement of CALEA.
CALEA cannot be solved with just a technical solution.
Small companies will not go under in becoming CALEA compliant. First the
smaller you are the less likely it is that you will *ever* be subject
to a
subpoena. Second, the smaller you are the *easier* it will be to
satisfy the
subpoena because you will likely *know* the target personally. Your
network
architecture will be important but CALEA does not permit the LEAs to
require to have to significantly modify your network. Read the FAQ.
No need to read the FAQ... we are CALEA compliant. I know what it takes
and people on this list aren't paying attention to the whole issue.
If you did not file your 477, why not? If you want a voice with the
FCC they
need to know we exist. The FCC states that they have only had about 400
wireless ISPs file their 477s. There is also a pretty good estimate
that there
are about 4000 wireless ISPs. If we want the FCC to listen to us as
much as
they listen to the ILECs, we need to make as much noise as the
ILEC's. If
we prove to them that we don't care what they do (and not filing that 477
speaks volumes in that regard), what are they to do?
Not sure where you are coming from with your comments. We filed form 477.
People, CALEA is not going to kill your business. Read the FAQ. Discuss
the FAQ. This ripping of the vestments and beating of the breasts is for
fear mongers and sheep. We are neither.
You're right, it isn't going to kill my business. But, watch how fast
companies start getting fined when they don't file correctly on the
14th. Then you will see some businesses get killed.
