The FCC is considering new rules and regulations for 9-1-1 use and accuracy through VoIP service providers.
FierceCable’s Lynnette Luna explains that the FCC is contemplating these requirements:
The possible “emerging location technology requirement” may also have to include businesses that are not VoIP service providers. That is to say, broadband cable providers would have to assist with supporting 9-1-1 locations. An added task that is expected to be met with resistance.
The FCC however is thinking that the most efficient solution for automatic location information lies in broadband providers and VoIP service providers both lending a hand in the process.
Luna notes that some say the existing VoIP call locating system already works well while Vonage claims that their cooperation with local authorities provides better location info than cell phone companies currently offer.
But with VoIP security a rising concern, deceptive callers can fudge their actual location and potentially tie up valuable emergency services.
