The Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") announced that itis increasing
its efforts to stop illegal robocalls that originate overseas from
reaching Americans' phones. On April 11, 2023, the FTC said that it
would be implementing "Project Point of No Entry" ("Project PoNE"),
which targets Voice over Internet Protocol ("VoIP") service providers
that serve as "point of entry" or gateway providers. Under Project
PoNE, the FTC plans to: "1) identif[y] point of entry VoIP service
providers that are routing or transmitting illegal call traffic, 2)
demand[] they stop doing so and warn [that] their conduct may violate
the Telemarketing Sales Rule, and 3) monitor[] them to pursue
recalcitrant providers, including by opening law enforcement
investigations and filing lawsuits when appropriate."
