The ITU itself is likely irrelevant. However, those who run ISPs across either the left or right puddle are likely to be hit with CALEA-like issues within the next few years, when their countries adopt similar laws. And those who think the EU's stand on privacy of data will prevent a CALEA should consider the sorts of data-retention proposals that are getting floated over there. Yes - the laws themselves are politics. Being able to install compliant routers without breaking the budget is totally operational... ;)
