Well, there is nothing new under the sun. Unsurprisingly, the few folks that did pick up on the Cyren Call story focused on the denial in bold type and completely ignored the stuff in the fine print. This by Richard Koman is typical.
OTOH, given that Cyren Call has been in a bunch to the FCC, I don’t think anyone important is fooled. Moving forward, the FCC will need to give some clear guidance on what it expects for PSST and its agents. As Morgan O’Brien observed, this will be a good thing.
Oh, if only some intrepid band of public interest groups were suing the @FCC for repealing the rule that prevented Frontier from pulling crap like this! Oh yeah. We filed our reply brief yesterday.
Oh, if only there were a rule for when a carrier de facto retires its copper lines by refusing to repair them. Oh wait, there WAS! Perhaps @AjitPaiFCC would like to explain what happened to it.

Always good to see folks keep the spotlight on this. No matter how jaded we feel sometimes, documenting this is important.
NEW: A presentation shows that Zumigo, one of the data brokers that sold cell phone location data used by bounty hunters, lobbied the FCC to get rid of user consent requirements to share that data https://t.co/ziNxXeh1Kr
