It applies to broadband, in the second paragraph of the wikipedia article: "it has since been extended to cover broadband Internet and VoIP traffic. Some government agencies argue that it covers mass surveillance of communications rather than just tapping specific lines and that not all CALEA-based access requires a warrant."
- mminer237 3y agoOh, wow. Wikipedia's statements are uncited so I kinda ignored it, but a DC court did okay that rule even though the statute says it doesn't apply to the Internet. That is worrying. Still it only allows the police to have switches forward packets to them. It doesn't have any ability to decrypt traffic.
- buildbot 3y agoI also know of someone who worked on an implementation of it for an Internet service provider ;)
