From how i understand the public/private space in China: Authoritarian government tells you to do something, you do it or go missing and are replaced by someone that will. I think its fair to assume that at any time, your data can be turned over to the gov, but if this is the way the FCC is going to go about it, where is the funding to offset the cost of switching to a Nokia or Ericson system? It shouldn't be the small regional ISPs that have to foot the bill for this one.
