Did you know that any cell phone in the US, whether it’s been “activated” or not with a calling plan, can make a 911 call. Know why? Because there is an overriding public interest in the provisioning of emergency services – that supercedes the interest of any individual corporation. Personally, I appreciate the availability of the service. I’ve never used it, but I’m glad it’s there.
