US plans to ban Chinese telecom firms from direct access to US phone numbers
WASHINGTON: The United States plans to soon ban Chinese telecom firms from direct access to US phone numbers on national security grounds – a measure designed to prevent scam-related robocalls.
The US Federal Communications Commission said on Thursday that it will vote on November 19 on a proposal to ban China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom and other IP-enabled service providers from direct access.
