The End of the Landline
The old phone network uses copper cabling to connect homes. A simple proven system which allows calls to be made even during a power cut.
There will be no new copper cable landlines installed in the UK. Problems with existing landline connections will be resolved by moving people over to internet based calls using VOIP.
Subscribers, including vulnerable people, who use the old landlines for security and backup may be provided with battery backup in case of power cuts. That's reassuring.
There is no choice in this. All calls will eventually pass through the broadband connection.
Did someone mention privacy? Ssshhhh.
