Could spam ruin VOIP?
VOIP is a potentially exciting technology that could reduce the cost of telephony significantly for customers. However uptake of this could be potentially limited if VOIP "spam" becomes a reality. Imagine if the ratio of pre-recorded "spam" calls you received was similar to your email spam ratio. How long would you keep with VOIP? This concept is briefly covered in an interesting conversation between Bruce Schneier and Bruce Sterling. If you want to buy the book they were pimping, "The Zenith Angle", you can get it from Amazon.
