# Podcast - Inside the TCPA: Call Blocking

 September 21, 2018

 

 

 

 

 

 

Full Spectrum’s ​“Inside the TCPA” podcast series offers a deeper focus on TCPA issues and petitions pending before the FCC. Each episode tackles a single TCPA topic or petition that is in the news or affecting cases around the country. This episode discusses efforts by the FCC and private industry to limit the number of illegal calls that reach consumers’ phones. In particular, we give an overview of a 2017 FCC order that authorized carriers to block certain types of calls, discuss the basics of private industry call blocking and call labeling services, and review suggestions from both industry and consumer groups on how to address this issue going forward.
