Re: Is Verizon POTS even relevant anymore?

said by bronxlcsw:

The only people who still have POTS service are those who are fearful of new technology like VOIP and people who cant get broadband.
That's the stupidest thing I have heard all week. I have VoIP, but I also have POTS. No matter who provides it, VoIP is not nearly as reliable as POTS in case of an emergency. I don't care that it is $30 "less" per month, my (and my families) safety is worth a lot more than saving a few bucks. I also have broadband, and have for close to 10 years so that has nothing to do with it. As for being "fearful of new technologies" that is just ignorant of you to say. I personally design and sell multi million dollar fiber networks for F100 companies all day long, what exactly do YOU do?

MAybe we should petition for dumb ass of the week. Or worst post of the week, maybe even dumb ass of the week.

I personally have worked on telco systems for years with most major cell carriers. And I know what telco boxes must withstand to be NEBS compliant.

I worked installing servers for voip companies and can say they never went the more expensive NEBS compliant route.

I value my safety as well. I have seen the Voip systems in companies fail way to many times to put it in use in my home.
