Should Wi-Fi Enabled Phone Calls Be Allowed on Planes

Interesting article in USA Today about using Voice over Internet (VOIP)/WiFi calling on airplanes.  Though US carriers who offer WiFi service are blocking VOIP, the block isn't ironclad, as noted in the article.  European carriers are allowing VOIP calls and so far, according to this article, passengers like it, and aren't revolting. 

Not so sure what I think.  Nice to be able to call, but I know there will be passengers who will be on the phone for an entire flight across the country, just because they can be.  What do you think?

Necessary evil?  Not sure but certainly seems fees are here to stay.
