Draft regulations for enforcing the law are still being finalized at the state level, and questions about specific aspects of the most sweeping privacy regulation since the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) are still not clear. https://www.theverge.com/2019/12/31/21039228/california-ccpa-facebook-microsoft-gdpr-privacy-law-consumer-data-regulation ------------------------------ Message-ID: <B4F467E0-3201-485D-9120-81A65860FB52@roscom.com> Date: 2 Jan 2020 00:40:58 -0500 From: "Monty Solomon" <monty@roscom.com> Subject: Wired for sound: How SIP won the VoIP protocol wars >From the archives: An in-depth look at VoIP, specifically its past. By Gilad Shaham Update: We're in the last throes of winter break 2019, which means most Ars' home office phones can stay dormant for a few more days. As such, we've been resurfacing a few classics from the archives - the latest being this look at how SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) won the VoIP protocol wars once upon a time. This story first appeared on December 8, 2009, and it appears unchanged below. http://arstechnica.com/business/news/2009/12/wired-for-sound-how-sip-won-the-voip-protocol-wars.ars ------------------------------ ********************************************* End of telecom Digest Fri, 03 Jan 2020
