Subject: Telephone And Texting Compliance News — May 2023
by Russell H. Fox , Jonathan P. Garvin , Joshua Briones , Esteban Morales and
Adam B. Korn
We are pleased to present our latest edition of Telephone and Texting
Compliance News, providing insights and news related to the Telephone
Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). In this issue's Regulatory Update, we
report on recent steps taken by the Federal Communications Commission
(Commission) to close some of the remaining gaps in its robocalling
rules. At its May Open Meeting, the Commission adopted a Seventh
Report and Order that requires all voice service providers to fully
respond to all traceback requests within 24 hours. The Order also
extends the requirement that a provider "know" the upstream provider
from which it directly receives call traffic and mandates that
originating providers block suspected illegal traffic when notified of
such activity by the Commission. The Commission also initiated a
proposed rulemaking seeking input on other potential call blocking
requirements. In addition, the Commission's Enforcement Bureau issued
a first-of-its-kind action against a gateway provider requiring voice
service providers immediately downstream from One Eye LLC to block and
cease accepting traffic from One Eye by June 12, 2023.

Subject: Kagan: How Verizon, T-Mobile, AT&T maintain their 5G
wireless networks
Opinion By Jeff Kagan
Did you ever wonder how the nation’s top wireless companies like
Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, AT&T Mobility, Dish, C-Spire, US Cellular
and others maintain their sprawling and ever-growing networks? While
they have their own engineering teams who are always at work, there is
always too much work and not enough time. That’s where they turn to
outside companies like Pearce Services, American Tower and Crown
Castle to help them on this enormous and growing task.
In fact, there are many third-party companies who work with wireless
carriers to update, maintain and repair cell sites and network
segments. There are also companies that build cell sites all around
the country, helping carriers better reach their customers.
