Subject: Supreme Court Narrows Scope Of TCPA In Landmark Autodialer
Ruling
By Geanette A. Foster, Esteban Morales, Matthew Novian, Russell Fox, and
Joshua Briones
In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court expressly overturned the
Ninth Circuit's decision in Marks v. Crunch San Diego, LLC, by
holding, "to qualify as an 'automatic telephone dialing system' under
the TCPA, a device must have the capacity either to store a telephone
number using a random or sequential number generator, or to produce a
telephone number using a random or sequential number generator."

Subject: Cybersecurity experts say elevating and supporting Black
professionals is key to workforce shortage
By Tonya Riley
The United States is facing a critical shortage of cybersecurity
professionals, one that government watchdogs and experts say is only
expected to grow in the coming years.
The shortage, which runs into hundreds of thousands of people, has
spurred government officials to ramp up their efforts to address two
of its driving factors: a lack of professional development
opportunities and barriers surrounding diversity.

***** Moderator's Note *****
My wife, who retired from Nursing, gets a great laugh out of stories
like this one: she says it's the same froth and dung that hospitals
and the AMA used to put out every few years, to lure a new generation
of low-wage entry-level applicants in to the business so as to keep
the old hands from getting too uppity with demands for more pay or
(heaven forfend!) forming unions to keep some of the profits from
marching off to the 0.01% of muckety-mucks.
