   At its March 16, 2023 Open Meeting, the Federal Communications   
   Commission (FCC or Commission) adopted a Sixth Report and Order and   
   Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Order and FNPRM, respectively),   
   which adds anti-robocall regulatory obligations for all voice service   
   providers, including intermediate providers and providers that have   
   fully deployed the STIR/SHAKEN call authentication standard.   
      
   Specifically, the Order amends the FCC's rules to require non-gateway   
   intermediate providers that receive unauthenticated Session Initiation   
   Protocol calls directly from an originating provider to authenticate   
   the call. The Order also expands mitigation obligations to require all   
   non-gateway intermediate providers and voice service providers that   
   have fully implemented STIR/SHAKEN to meet the "reasonable steps"   
   general mitigation standard that is currently applied to gateway   
   providers and voice service providers that have not fully implemented   
   STIR/SHAKEN under the FCC's rules. Further, the Order builds on   
   Robocall Mitigation Database (RMD) filing obligations, requiring that   
   all providers file a robocall mitigation plan and a certification in   
   the RMD, regardless of whether they are required to implement   
   STIR/SHAKEN. Lastly, the Order strengthens the FCC's robocall   
   enforcement framework by adopting per-call forfeiture penalties and   
   expedited procedures for removal of certain RMD certifications.
