Richter (Los Angeles) , Gregory W. Coutros (Washington, DC) and Nicole McFarland (Washington, DC) Late last year, the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC" or the "Commission") released a Report and Order (the "Order") promulgating new disclosure requirements for broadband providers in the form of a label to be visible at the point of sale. This client alert provides a summary of the requirements providers must follow in formulating and displaying their labels. We also include here a high-level checklist, which provides a guide to the content requirements applicable to providers when creating their labels. Do not hesitate to reach out to us with questions about how the rules apply to your organization. https://www.mondaq.com/article/news/1277906?q=1803232&n=691&tp=17&tlk=4&lk=78 -- (Please remove QRM for direct replies)

Klein (New York) More and more businesses are engaging potential customers via telemarketing. With this comes the growing risk of contacting consumers who have not provided proper TCPA consent. The Telephone Consumer Protection Act ("TCPA") protects consumers against the receipt of certain unsolicited telemarketing calls and text messages. A business that violates TCPA regulations faces fines of up to $1,500 per unauthorized call or text. These violations can get extremely expensive in the case of class actions, which often involve multiple alleged violations against thousands of consumers.

There's still time for the phones to make their way into the hands of consumers, with pre-orders scheduled to start shipping on February 17. Now, if you are on T-Mobile's network and placed your Galaxy S23's pre-order through Samsung's online store, an inadvertent bug from the Korean company's side may have led to you losing mobile service on your existing phone. https://www.androidpolice.com/blame-samsung-not-tmobile-lost-network-access-phone/ -- (Please remove QRM for direct replies)
