INTRODUCTION\n 1. Combatting illegal calls is our top consumer protection priority, and we are taking a\nholistic approach by attacking them at every point in their lifecycle. This includes stopping illegal calls\nbefore they enter the phone network, requiring intermediate providers to block them, and giving\nconsumers more information to decide whether they want to answer the calls that reach their phones.\n 2. The most effective way to prevent illegal calls from reaching American consumers is by\nensuring they never enter the network. Originating voice service providers are best positioned to do that\nby screening new or renewing customers before they make calls.1 Although Commission rules already\nrequire originating providers to take “affirmative, effective” measures to “know[ their] customers,”2 some\noriginating providers do not do enough. The result is more illegal calls that defraud American\nconsumers3 and open our communications network to vulnerabilities.4 Beyond allowing illegal calling,\nthis lack of diligence on the part of some originating providers can make it difficult for law enforcement\nto identify criminals that use the telephone network to perpetrate drug deals, violent crimes, and human\ntrafficking.\n\n\n1 For purposes of this Further Notice, we use the definition of “voice service provider” that we used in the Fourth\n\nCall Blocking Order. Specifically, “voice service provider” means any entity originating, carrying, or terminating\nvoice calls through time-division multiplexing (i.e., “traditional” voice service), Voice over Internet Protocol\n(VoIP), or commercial mobile radio service (CMRS), unless otherwise noted. See Advanced Methods to Target and\nEliminate Unlawful Robocalls, CG Docket No. 17-59, Fourth Report and Order, 35 FCC Rcd 15221, 15222, para. 2,\nn.2 (2020) (Fourth Call Blocking Order).
