Three thoughts.
1) To be slightly annoyingly contrarian, there is money to be made in secure telecom; Skype founders made a bundle, no?
2) This article conflates freeswitch with major telecom carrier infeastructure. My impression is that 30+% of the problem with security is not technical but economic. Carriers outsource a ton of their operations, effectively outsourcing most efforts to care about security... which never helps security posture unless the outsourcer considers their core value proposition, which they generally don't, instead pushing themselves as a cost/capitalization play.
3) No discussion of Matrix here as where things are headed, security-wise? https://matrix.org/blog/2024/10/29/matrix-2.0-is-here/ https://matrix.org/blog/2024/10/29/matrix-2.0-is-here/
