That’s what the sensational headline would make you think, but the opposite is true. According to the company, the devices do, in fact, detect and let 911 calls through to the real tower. It is all other calls that are blocked.

The only reason to go through such expensive regulatory certifications is that you believe you have a legal obligation to.
