The key, though, with some of the systems is that if you can't afford to have someone upgrading the system, you're not going to be a candidate for that. The new devices that are going to be capable of this either have to be mandated or you'll have to replace them, which is also going to be an economic boon for some and a detraction for others. It's also more complicated for some people who don't have the ability to swap their phone plan program out sooner than others. That's going to be a big issue.
At this point, should we ask the Privacy Commissioner for commentary? The problem we have with the CRTC, quite frankly, is that it hasn't had a major overhaul in over 20 years. Expecting them to make some of these changes alone without a legislative change from Parliament is going to handicap them very significantly.
Should we be asking for advice from the Privacy Commissioner on STIR/SHAKEN and this issue?
