The article highlights points that the "Laughing Stock" auditionees have failed to think about ( suprise,suprise ) and that is the following (emphasis mine).

"The FCC proposal would not make a dent in the huge cost advantage enjoyed by international phone calls using Internet technology nor affect the attractiveness of placing calls on corporate Intranets using Internet phone technology."

" Interestingly, both intra-corporate calls carried by the long distance networks and by Intranets bypass the local phone network and thereby avoid the associated access charges."

If one thinks hard on these paragraphs then it becomes apparent that there is a loophole in the thinking on the whole concept of fees for VOIP. That is left as an exercise for the reader.

Hopefully it will reduce the number of people mowing a lawn while screaming hysterically "The fees are coming. The Fees are coming !!!".
