Maybe it would add the "beep" to the conversation when it is active?

Also, how is the law applied? If a resident of a state forbids recording without both party consent does the person have to physically be in the state during the call? Or is it just based on the fact that the area code/prefix is registered within the state?

I live in Iowa, also a very rural state. We literally have tens of coops around the state that have done the exact same thing providing FTTP. These rural coops have access to government funding and low interest loans to build these networks.

This isn't new. This has been going on for many years now.

From what I see, Linux dominates servers, appliances, cloud services, thin clients and mobile devices. The only area it doesn't dominate is the user workstation environment. I'd say Linux is doing alright.

This is what happens when you store your data "in the cloud." What part of "out of your control" was confusing?

Management doesn't care. It will never happen to them. Until it does.

But the rest of us that see what is really going on are crazy and only thinking of our jobs. I'll have a job regardless of the cloud. I recommend what is in the best interest of the organization.

Its about the same draw as an AC unit or a dryer...so it'll hold up about the same as a summer night.

No, it's not the same. The same means it is the same. This is more. Right now people use their AC and dryers at the same time. Now we are talking about adding another power hungry appliance, possibly during peak usage. I'm not taking sides here. But I will point out incorrect statements.
