The time to say good bye to your favourite VOIP service may not be far away. Department of Telecom, or DoT, is planning to put this drastic measure into effect, just after it had taken a call to bury IMEI-less handset. Reports suggest that your untraceable Voice over Internet Protocol or VoIP services may not survive long in India.India’s lack of effective technology to track Caller Line Identification may cost you the comfort of cheap net telephony in India.
These developments took place after India’s Intelligence Bureau had instructed the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology to block all Internet telephony services in and out of India till DoT can devise a method to track such calls, in order to curb the communication of terrorists groups.
“In the interest of national security”, the Intelligence Bureau has asked the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology to block Internet telephony services in and out of the country till the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) puts a method in place to track such calls.
If implemented, this IB order will be a severe blow to millions of consumers who use VoIP services to make low cost ISD calls to phones and free PC to PC calls. There are around 34 companies providing VoIP services in the country.
