Watts is a measurement of power. P = VI, so do watts flow? Not really, it is just a measurement.

It really is no secret that phone lines come with 40ish volts to on them. That is how old pay phones works, they were supplied their own power and also the old school telephones that you just simply plugged into the wall, the power was just there.

The only secret about it, is the fact that it is more lost knowledge among average people now. But yeah, definitely could be easily caught when the phone company gets complaints of DSL speeds sucking, they come out and easily trace it to you.
