   It's now also putting a limit on non-telemarketing robocalls.

   The FCC has been adopting more and more measures to combat robocalls,   
   and the latest set of rules it's implementing include limiting even   
   non-telemarketing calls made to residential phones. Non-commercial,   
   commercial and nonprofit organizations can now only make up to three   
   calls per residential number within 30 days and are required to allow   
   recipients to opt out. The FCC didn't have a limit for non-telemar-   
   keting calls before this change. In addition, the commission has   
   introduced new rules for voice service providers, which are now   
   required to respond to traceback requests for illegal call sources   
   from the commission and from law enforcement.

   The question, of course, is whether "residential phones" includes cell   
   phones.
