    FCC Combats Robocallers' Abuse of Phone Numbering Resources

    Summary: The Federal Communications Commission today adopted changes to its rules to prevent phone numbering resources from being abused by robocallers.  While the agency has built up its STIR/SHAKEN caller ID authentication rules and call traceback efforts, bad actors have leveraged the proliferation of VoIP providers with access to numbering services to bypass these protections and continue to bombard consumers with robocalls.  The FCC today applied its robocall, public safety, and national security compliance certification and disclosure requirements to all interconnected VoIP providers that directly access U.S. numbering resources.
