The FCC's decision to make CALEA legacy wiretapping rules apply to VoIP and broadband networks has forced universities nationwide to re-wire their networks on their own dime. Techdirt points out that Bowdoin College students and residents of Brunswick, Maine won't be seeing a Wi-Fi project deployed for now, because the college isn't sure how/when/if they should make the Wi-Fi network wiretap friendly, and if they'll be held liable if it's made available to the public.
