" ... "So how do these services get paid, and why are the access numbers all in Iowa? The short answer is tax subsidies."
He goes on to explain that our government gives the states money to help them with maintenance and improvements to local telephone plants. There's also an invisible tariff involved, amounting to three cents per minute collected by the *terminating* phone company.
Alec speculates that Futurephone is performing a sort of tariff arbitrage.
"Let's take FuturePhone as an example...All you have to do is call 712 858 8883 (a number provided by the tiny Superior Telephone Coop in Estherville, Iowa), and then enter the international call you want to make using the standard 011 prefix.
"So how do they make money? ... Say that FuturePhone's cost to terminate the call is 1.25 cents. That leaves 1.75 cents per minute to split with the folks at Superior Telephone Coop. Give them half, which leaves you 0.875 cents per minute, and you've got a pretty attractive proposition ... Everybody wins! The good citizens of Iowa win (they've now got a fiber network joining up 150 of their independently owned telcos), FuturePhone has a seemingly profitable business model, and you win by getting cheap overseas calls."
Now, Alec goes on to imply that this plan is sneaky and that somehow you wind up shouldering the burden. Me, I don't see anything wrong with it. The Futurephone guy and his fellow Iowans have stumbled upon a clever scheme, if they are indeed using this arbitrage ploy. It's perfectly legal, and does, in fact, win us free overseas calls. (Alec ignores, for example, the fact that many people have cellphones or home phones with unlimited long distance for a fixed price. For us, these international calls are really, truly free.)
So is that what Futurephone is doing? I asked Futurephone's Tom Doolin point-blank this week.
All he'll say in response is that, "Our company is private and we do not disclose proprietary or confidential information."
But he did note that the company is now "actively pursuing potential advertising sponsors." That's a new bit of information, which I found explained in more detail on an ABC News Web article. "They'll listen to a 10-second commercial if they can make a free call," Mr. Doolin told ABC News. "In the middle of next year you might see something like that."
(He also, by the way, stressed that, "In response to your follow-up on personal privacy, let me assure you that Futurephone.com does not record people's telephone conversations.")
For now, I think a lot of the commenters and bloggers are being too cynical. My own reaction is much more along the lines of this reader's comment:
"It WORKS! I just called a relative in a small town in Greece from my cell phone and was connected immediately. (I have never been able to call using my cell phone before.)
"To those who think that Big Brother is monitoring the calls: if they are the least bit interested in my conversation -- in Greek -- with an 86-year-old aunt, so be it; you just saved me $50-$100 a month!"
..."
