If DoT were to implement the IB directive, it will impact hundreds of thousands of consumers who use the internet to make extremely low cost calls to phones and free calls to computers across the globe. Telcos such as MTNL in Delhi and Mumbai and many leading ISPs offer internet telephony services.

In addition, any consumer with internet access can use services from hundreds of companies such as Skype, Google, Yahoo! and Window Live, amongst others.

Read in yeaterday's Times Mumbai edition .. Govt may Ban Skype as it is not sharing its encryption code with it.. this may also apply with other VOIPs...
