We firmly believe that the rush to get rid of copper POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) is a big mistake, and not well thought out - and is in essence a misuse of technology because it loses many of the reasons for POTS (not relying on power/still working during power outages, which means that the rush to "clean" energies will cause this transition to add more strain on the existing grid that we're not ready to handle).
However, the ramifications of the decision won't really be felt until long after we're gone.
Make sure you're ready for the transition if you still have your old phone service and are a US citizen, if you haven't gotten an outreach from your phone service provider.
Bottom line: if your phone line isn't coming out of a modem, you might be affected.
