Since there has been some discussion of FCC part 68 data access

FCC PROPOSES STREAMLINING TECHNICAL RULES FOR CUSTOMER TELEPHONE
EQUIPMENT
Issue: Telephony
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has adopted a Notice of
Proposed
Rulemaking (NPRM) to privatize the process for developing technical
standards for and approval of customer telephone equipment also known as
customer premises equipment (CPE), which includes devises such as
telephones, faxes and modems. The proposed rules highlight the
commission's
biennial regulatory review to eliminate unnecessary regulations as
competition increases in telecom markets.
