The Chinese government, with the help of an American firm, is attempting to block VOIP traffic. Can you explain why they want to do that?
This is an example of putting "intelligence" inside the network, or breaking the end-to-end policy by which routers only route traffic, ignorning the content. (See our class note on the end-to-end design principle).

Chinese government is some what communism and they want to control information that will protect their best interest. Another might be that the Chinese government wants to financially protect their phone companies.
