Thanks! I feel so much better now that your thorough examinations have put this troublesome menace to society to rest!
Nobody is going to deprive you of your choice. If you think that 911, police, etc. are valuable, by all means use them, and do sign up for the service that offers them.
The difference I'm talking about is about the right of free choice. From my point of view, if you think that 911 is useful service, you have your right to buy it for yourself. But you may not impose it on others who may have opposite view. However, this is what the government is doing. It's the same principle of personal liberty as using or not seatbelts in the car, or using or not drugs. The government is expected to ensure that people don't hurt other people, but everybody should be 100% free to manage their own business, own body, and own safety.

SO, you don't want any rules
or
just don't want rules that you don't like??
I am with you on the draconian drug laws, but stopping at red lights, wearing a seat belt or motorcycle helmet, mandatory car insurance... helps protect society, and saves money $
imagine if there were no building codes, and a builder builds substandard building and it falls down, on YOU. Are you willing to pay that price for the sake of "freedom"?

I am not going to change anything until it stops working. As of this morning, GV is still working good. ;D
I live with someone else and they have a landline so I am not worried about 911.

If "XMPP not supported after May 15, 2014" only means Obihai/Google will not help me with it or provide any technical support, then I will happily continue to use it indefinitely, since I have never received any technical support or help from Obihai or Google anyway.

Oh please.
Don't you think this forum would have been completely flooded with reports of GV no longer working if in fact it stopped working?
Newflash, Despite Doomsday preachers saying the world is ending, the sun still comes up.
Now I don't know what to do, use my backup sun, enjoy the old sun, or wonder why the Doomsday preacher was wrong, or contact his god, and find out what's going on ;)
