Interesting. No ability to opt-out, and no signup option. So will 
they use the customer's billing address, attempt to determine 
location based on IP address or some other voodoo? It'll be 
interesting to see if they manage to handle vonage boxes that are 
connected over VPN tunnels that terminate far from where the IP 
addresses "appear" to be. Also, Vonage promotes the "take your phone 
service with you" idea, so there's a real opportunity for problems. 
This should be interesting to watch.
