Smartphone users in the country are still dealing with robotexts and scam text messages. And as a way of continuing its fight against these, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has proposed new rules.
According to PhoneScoop, the FCC wants caller ID authentication standards to be applied to text messaging.
With this new rule, mobile wireless providers will be required to “block texts, at the network level, that purport to be from invalid, unallocated, or unused numbers, and numbers on a Do-Not-Originate (DNO) list.”
In addition to this new rule, the FCC is seeking more ideas on how to detect and block texts from phone numbers that have been spoofed.
