While the specifics may have changed, the reality is the same - the FBI shut down the servers of a lot of very innocent companies for no reason if all they needed to do was investigate the voip servers and get records of the transactions that AT&T and Verizon are complaining about - and according to the owners of the ISPs involved, any fees due them should be paid by the clients using the voip servers, not them, by the way. Story here. Whether any of this is true or not is still speculation as well. But the FBI still shut down the entire ISP, and a lot of people with no connection to any possible wrongdoing are suffering because of it, whether it be from loss of data or their 911 service. etc.
