How to Blocking VoIP ( H.323) ?

If someone want to be insane -  allow him to do it; what's the problem? Is
this question coming from Panamian government? -:)

This is internet - if I have 10 Mbit connection and 100msec latency, I can
use it for Voice, no way to block me; if it is 19200bits/second and 2 second
latency, I can not. That's all. Other methods can provide temporary reliefe
only.
