That definition excludes the possibility of blocking VoIP because the 
incumbent telco doesn't want the commercial competition.

VoIP is a clearly a "service type"; there are many owners and origins, 
and the content could just as easily be people trying to book hotel 
rooms, as calls to organise an anti-government protest meeting.
