I live in Calgary, I remember when that happened; The PSAP/E911 operator sent the ambulance to the wrong address... Merely it is due to the customer not notifying the carrier that they have moved / E911 operator not confirming the address. It was quite a big deal in the papers around here and triggered several VOIP providers to tighten up.<br>

How many people have died because of mis-configured 911 VOIP services?<br>
<br>
I know of two such cases, one in FL and one in Calgary.<br>
<br>
Morbid topic, I know, but rainy mornings are good for serious thoughts.<br>
