With partial dissents from two Commissioners, the FCC today clarified in a declaratory ruling that voice service providers may use analytics to identify robocalls that are likely to be unwanted and to block them on a default basis, provided they inform consumers and offer them the ability to opt out. It also said that providers could offer to block all calls that do not originate from a subscriber's "white list" or contact list, and it sought input on a proposal to mandate the adoption of a call authentication system if carriers do not implement an industry solution by the end of the year.
The declaratory ruling and third further notice of proposed rulemaking (FNPRM) adopted at today's FCC meeting (see separate stories) in CG docket 17-59 and WC docket 17-97.
The declaratory ruling will allow providers "to protect more consumers from unwanted robocalls and making it more cost-effective to implement call blocking programs," according to an FCC press release.
The accompanying third FNPRM proposes mandate implementation of the industry's SHAKEN/STIR caller ID authentication framework "if major voice service providers fail to do so by the end of this year." It also seeks comment on a possible "safe harbor for providers that block calls that are maliciously spoofed so that caller ID cannot be authenticated and that block calls that are 'unsigned,'" the press release adds.
The third FNPRM also seeks comment on requiring providers to establish a "critical call" list of numbers that could not be blocked, such as the outbound numbers of 911 call centers, Jerusha Burnett, an attorney adviser in the Consumer Policy Division of the FCC's Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau (CGB), said in presenting the item to the Commissioners at the meeting. It also seeks comment on remedies for callers whose calls are erroneously blocked.
Commissioner Mike O'Rielly dissented from the delegation of authority to the CGB staff to collect "any and all" information from providers deemed necessary to compile reports on the deployment and implementation of call authentication.
In his separate statement, Mr. O'Rielly praised Chairman Ajit iPai "for his enormous leadership on the fight to eliminate bad robocalls. He's been very incredibly focused on reducing this perverse problem. I am at a loss to see more steps that the Chairman could take on the matter."
However, he expressed concern that although the item is "very well-intended," it might "lead to certain problematic consequences. Completely legitimate organizations and businesses regularly engage in so-called 'robocalling' to provide consumers with critical and time-sensitive information, such as fraud alerts, flight schedule changes, school closures, delivery window delays, prescription notices, appointment reminders, public safety alerts, and—yes—anti-delinquency notices. Efforts to attack illegal and fraudulent calls should not restrict or prevent these beneficial robocalls."
Commissioner O'Rielly also emphasized the need for mechanisms for "to ensure swift redress for erroneously blocked calls. I have heard countless accounts of erroneous blocking and labeling both prior to and in the aftermath of the 2017 [spoofed-call blocking] Order and welcome the adoption of a future item in response to that record in prompt course."
He added, "Notably, that 2017 Order only allowed carriers to block very circumscribed categories of calls, namely, calls on a Do-Not-Originate list, and those from invalid, unallocated, or unused numbers. That is a narrower universe than the vast range of calls affected by today's Declaratory Ruling, which enables opt-out blocking of illegal and 'unwanted' calls. While I fully and wholeheartedly support Commission efforts to purge illegal calls from our networks, I am concerned about encouraging default blocking of so-called 'unwanted' calls. Categories like "wanted" or "unwanted" can be somewhat vague and subjective, to put it mildly. Giving carriers such vast discretion to decide which calls are unwanted could lead to wanted calls, containing highly-pertinent consumer information, being blocked."
Commissioner O'Rielly also noted that the FCC did not set a maximum error rate or performance caliber for the analytics used to determine which calls should be blocked.
"As any e-mail user knows, spam filters, which operate through analytics, are by no means perfect. Almost everyone has had the experience of missing important messages because of an oversensitive filter. For a service that is generally free and unregulated, I can accept placing the burden on consumers to go into their spam folders periodically to look for erroneously-labeled emails. That same circumstance doesn't exist for voice calls, which have been hyper-regulated for decades and do not feature a means to determine what has been missed. To the extent that providers implement this new default regime, I worry that consumers will only realize that important voice calls have been blocked after it's too late," he said.
Mandating a redress procedure for erroneously blocked calls "didn't exactly fit" procedurally into a declaratory ruling, Commissioner O'Rielly acknowledged. "However, the Chairman did agree to add language noting that a 'reasonable' blocking program would include a mechanism for resolving complaints. That is a huge step forward even if it may not provide a complete respite from blocking purgatory. I thank the Chairman for recognizing the need for effective redress."
"I hold out hope that all goes well because there is so much at stake. At the same time, put me down as someone open to refining some of the item's points of contention going forward," he said.
"Nonetheless, I am going to dissent on one smaller issue: the draft's delegation to bureau staff to collect 'any and all relevant information' from voice service providers to prepare reports on the state of call blocking. I worry that this language is breathtakingly expansive and gives the bureau virtually unlimited authority to demand whatever data it wishes from carriers. I have raised similar concerns over past delegations and see this instance as unnecessary and unaccountable, even if based in good intentions.
Accordingly, I will vote to approve the majority of the item and dissent on that one piece," Commissioner O'Rielly concluded.
Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel dissented from the item's lack of a prohibition on providers' charging subscribers for call-blocking.
In her separate statement she said, "As far as this new blocking technology goes, so far, so good. But there is one devastating problem with our approach. There is nothing in our decision today that prevents carriers from charging consumers for this blocking technology to stop robocalls.
"I think robocall solutions should be free to consumers. Full stop. I do not think that this agency should pat itself on the back for its efforts to reduce robocalls and then tell consumers to pay up. They are already paying the price — in scams flooding our phone lines; wasted time responding to false and fraudulent calls offering us what we did not ask for, do not want, and do not need; and a growing distrust in our most basic communications," she continued.
"I like hope. But I am not interested in pinky promises. I think we should be up front and clear with consumers that today's decision offers no more than an 'expectation' that phone companies installing this technology will not charge consumers a premium for its use. But every one of us knows there is nothing enforceable about an expectation. There is nothing here that prevents companies from charging each of us whatever additional fees they want to put this call blocking technology on our line," Commissioner Rosenworcel said.
"I'm a consumer, too. I receive robocalls at home, in my office, on my landline, on my mobile. I've even received multiple robocalls sitting here on this dais. I want it to stop. But I do not believe I should have to pay for that privilege. I am disappointed that for all our efforts to support new blocking technology, we couldn't muster up the courage to do what consumers want most — stop robocalls and do it for free. On this aspect of today's decision, I dissent," she concluded.
Commissioner Brendan Carr said, "To ensure that providers do step up their efforts, I asked my colleagues to expand today's Notice to seek comment on setting up a robocall scorecard. The idea is to publicize data on each carrier and how effective they are at targeting and blocking illegal calls. By bringing transparency to these metrics, we could enhance consumer choice and create additional incentives for carriers to continue their efforts to crack down on illegal calls. So I look forward to seeing how the record develops on this idea.
"Finally, our action today is no silver bullet. It's part of a series of actions we are taking to break the back of illegal robocalls. Another important step will be industry's implementation of the SHAKEN/STIR call authentication framework. And on this score, I want to commend Chairman Pai for expanding today's Notice to seek comment on requiring carriers to implement this framework. By seeking comment today, we are now in a position to move directly to an order if industry's own efforts to implement the regime fall short," Commissioner Carr added.
Commissioner Geoffrey Starks said, "I support today's item. I am hopeful that clarifying that providers may offer informed opt-out call blocking services will make these tools available to millions more consumers as soon as possible. I appreciate that this item notes that these services should not negatively impact emergency calls or rural call completion obligations. And I am glad that we will now be positioned to act on mandating Caller ID authentication by the end of the year, if needed."
He continued, "I was supportive of edits proposed by my colleagues to ensure that such blocking is offered in a competitively neutral and non-discriminatory way, to study the impact of blocking on 911 and public safety, and to empower consumers to gather additional information about the effectiveness of call blocking solutions. I am also supportive of revisions proposed by my colleagues that provide callers with a mechanism to dispute blocked calls that may have been misidentified, provided that consumers remain in the driver's seat throughout the process."
Commissioner Starks thanked his colleagues for supporting his own proposal addition of a section requiring the CGB, in consultation with the Wireline Competition Bureau and the Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau, "to gather information from carriers and produce a series of comprehensive reports on the deployment and implementation of call blocking and Caller ID authentication. As I have made clear in a number of recent items, it is imperative that in dealing with the most significant issues of telecommunications policy — such as who has access to broadband — the Commission must gather and rely on clear and accurate data.
"Specifically, at my request, the item will give us critical feedback on how our tools are performing. It will now study the availability of call blocking solutions; the fees charged, if any, for these services; the effectiveness of various categories of call blocking tools; and an assessment of the number of subscribers availing themselves of available call blocking tools. The item also now asks that the reports assess the impact of previous Commission rule changes and, critically, include information on the state of deployment of Caller ID authentication through the implementation of the SHAKEN/STIR framework for the first time ever," he continued.
Commissioner Starks also said he looked forward to comments in response to an edit he proposed to the third FNPRM seeking comment on "setting up a robocall scorecard. The idea is to publicize data on each carrier and how effective they are at targeting and blocking illegal calls. By bringing transparency to these metrics, we could enhance consumer choice and create additional incentives for carriers to continue their efforts to crack down on illegal calls. So I look forward to seeing how the record develops on this idea."
He also thanked Chairman Pai "for expanding today's Notice to seek comment on requiring carriers to implement [the SHAKEN/STIR call authentication] framework. By seeking comment today, we are now in a position to move directly to an order if industry's own efforts to implement the regime fall short."
In his statement, Chairman Pai said, "I'm optimistic that all of these measures will meaningfully reduce the number of unwanted robocalls that Americans get. Of course, I recognize that not everyone is a fan of our approach. Some opponents themselves are subjecting consumers to a torrent of unwanted robocalls. My message to them is simple: The FCC will stand with American consumers, not with those who are badgering them with unwanted robocalls.
"I also recognize that some who make legitimate calls have expressed concern about our decision today. But I believe that we've appropriately addressed their concerns by making clear that any reasonable call-blocking program offered by default must include a mechanism for allowing legitimate callers to register a complaint and for having that complaint resolved," Chairman Pai added.
"Turning to the Third Further Notice, we advance significant proposals related to the Caller ID authentication framework known as SHAKEN/STIR. SHAKEN/STIR will be critical in telling consumers whether the Caller ID information they see is real or spoofed. And it can be used to assist with blocking spoofed calls. That's why we're proposing a safe harbor for phone companies that choose to block calls that can't be authenticated under SHAKEN/STIR," he said.
"When it comes to the implementation of SHAKEN/STIR, I have made clear my expectation that major carriers will get this done by the end of the year. I believe that a voluntary, industry-led process is most likely to achieve this goal. And to date, I've been pleased by the progress that industry has made and am optimistic that the end-of-the year deadline will be met. But in case it isn't, the FCC will not hesitate to take regulatory action. That's why today, we're taking the necessary steps so that we will be in a position to take regulatory action early next year, should that be required," Chairman Pai added.
Reaction from Capitol Hill was generally laudatory, although some Democrats found fault with issues such as the lack of a prohibition on charges for call-blocking. There were also indications of continued bipartisan appetite for further congressional action in this area.
House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Frank Pallone Jr. (D., N.J.) said, "I'm glad the FCC took action to allow more blocking of robocalls, but I'm disappointed the Commission's ruling doesn't ensure consumers don't foot the bill for stopping these calls. Consumers should not have to pay one cent more of their hard-earned money to get rid of these illegal and unwanted calls. The Committee will markup consumer-focused legislation soon to stop the robocall epidemic."
House Commerce Committee ranking minority member Greg Walden Walden (R., Ore.) and communications and technology subcommittee ranking minority member Bob Latta (R., Ohio) said, "We applaud Chairman Pai and the FCC for acting today to provide new tools to stop unwanted robocalls. Last Congress, as part of RAY BAUM's Act, we provided the FCC more authority to go after bad actors who abuse us all with their unwanted calls and texts. Now, it is time for Congress to redouble our bipartisan efforts to hang up the phone on spoofed and malicious robocalls once and for all."
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D., Minn.) said, "Today, the FCC made an important new ruling to help protect consumers from robocalls — by allowing carriers to block robocalls, consumers will be free from annoying, unwanted, and potentially fraudulent calls. While this is a promising step, we still must make sure we are protecting consumers' choice and ensuring that the price of using these call-blocking technologies does not pass to the consumers. That's why I've supported bills like the Telephone Robocall Abuse Criminal Enforcement and Deterrence (TRACED) Act, bipartisan legislation that gives regulators more time to find scammers, increases civil forfeiture penalties, and promotes call authentication and blocking adoption."
The Senate passed the TRACED Act last month (TR Daily, May 23).
Patrick Halley, senior vice president–policy and advocacy at USTelecom, which leads the Industry Traceback Group, said, "The FCC took an important step in the robocall wars today by empowering carriers to expand their efforts to block illegal and unwanted robocalls. Greater flexibility for carriers is a win for consumers. The work is far from done, however, and we look forward to working with the Commission and other stakeholders to further incentivize the ongoing industry innovation required to stop the scamming, spoofing and endless aggravation of phone users."
CTIA VP–regulatory affairs Matthew Gerst said, "Today, the FCC took another important step towards relieving American consumers from the plague of illegal and unwanted robocalls by ensuring they can automatically benefit from innovative call blocking tools and make informed decisions about which calls they want to receive. We thank the Commission for continuing to make clear that protecting consumers from the scourge of robocalls is a bipartisan priority."
In a blog post, Ronan Dunne, executive VP at Verizon Communications, Inc., and chief executive officer of Verizon's Consumer Group, said, "Verizon's wireless customers can already choose to automatically block robocalls for free using our industry-leading Call Filter service, which sends the blocked calls directly to voicemail based on whatever category that the consumer selects. We're also in the process of making our Call Filter service even better. As we continue to evolve the service, we intend to take advantage of the new flexibility the FCC is giving us. With the help of these new FCC rules, we'll be able to provide our customers the benefits of spam alerts and blocking more broadly and conveniently."
Joan Marsh, EVP–regulatory and state external affairs at AT&T, Inc., said, "Today, the FCC took another major step in combatting the robocall problem. The Commission's action will enable broader adoption of call blocking tools to avoid unwanted robocalls and lays the groundwork for providers to block more robocalls to protect their customers and networks. AT&T remains committed to working with the FCC and the industry to further curtail illegal and unwanted calls."
ACA President and CEO Matthew Polka said, ""Those consumers who are less familiar with and slower to adopt new technologies are particularly likely to benefit from blocking tools made available on an opt-out basis, as today's ruling contemplates."
Maureen Mahoney, policy analyst for Consumer Reports, said that there is still much more work to be done — including getting phone companies to implement anti-robocall technology, and ensuring that this service is provided to consumers free of charge. The FCC also needs to issue strong rules clarifying the Telephone Consumer Protection Act's coverage, to stop robocallers from attempting to evade it. We look forward to continuing to work with the FCC and Congress until consumers have the protections they need." —Lynn Stanton, [email protected]

Olympia Lactation offers breastfeeding support in the comfort of your own home or in a home-like office by board-certified lactation consultants, Carrie DiStefano, Kristeen Seratt, and Stefanie Anderson.
Working at a hospital as a lactation consultant, Carrie realized that many families go home without proper breastfeeding support due to the short nature of their stay at the hospital. New parents are discharged from the hospital sleep-deprived, overwhelmed with information, and often lacking knowledge of where to seek out breastfeeding assistance. Providing a personalized outpatient lactation service is something Carrie feels is crucial to breastfeeding success. Carrie has also completed a year-long holistic lactation training and is prepared and knowledgeable to address complex cases and breastfeeding situations.
Carrie has three young daughters and became passionate about breastfeeding after working through many struggles with her first more than 10 years ago. She has been supporting breastfeeding families since 2012 and an IBCLC since 2015. She's passionate about assisting families with meeting their breastfeeding goals whether that is 3 days, 3 months or 3 years. You can read more about Carrie here.
Olympia Lactation is excited to have Kristeen Seratt join our team in 2019!
Kristeen has been working with breastfeeding families for over 15 years. First as a labor and delivery nurse, a pediatric nurse, and then as a lactation specialist. She has been an IBCLC for 5 years working mostly in an outpatient setting but also has done inpatient postpartum lactation support and was responsible for starting the lactation program in a level 3 NICU in southern California. She has led parenting education classes and a variety of support groups. She has lived with her family in Olympia for 3 years but considers herself a NW girl, having spent the majority of her childhood in Northwest Oregon and Southwest Washington and her early adulthood in Seattle. Her passion for Maternal Child well-being spans across her professional life into her personal life where she has had the honor to mother both foster and biological children.
Olympia Lactation is happy to have Stefanie Anderson join our team in 2019!
Stefanie has been working with new and expectant parents as a certified birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator, and breastfeeding counselor since 2013, as an inpatient lactation specialist since 2016, and as an IBCLC since 2018. Working in this capacity has allowed Stefanie to support families from pregnancy to birth, and in those precious first hours, days, and months when breastfeeding relationships are established and evolving. Having breastfed her own four children, she has experienced firsthand many difficulties that can accompany breastfeeding, and knows how valuable professional support can be. With specific training regarding counseling the nursing parent, Stefanie brings not only experience and technical knowledge, but also sincere compassion and understanding to the families she works with. Her hope is to provide individualized care that honors every family's feeding choices.

In our Science Co-op class, we were introduced to our Thermos Challenge project. The goal was to design and build your own homemade Thermos that prevented 150 mL of water from losing heat. With a budget of only $4 ($3 for thermos and $1 for wiring), our group decided to make a "hot" thermos that used electricity to maintain a steady inner temperature. This prevented the water inside from losing an excessive amount of heat. We also made a penguin cozy to keep it warm!
To begin, remove the top of the pop can. You can do this by using a knife to cut where the pop can will begin to slant inwards. Once removed, fold the sharp edges of the base of the pop can inwards. The top of the pop can may be thrown out.
Next, trace the diameter of the pop can onto a sheet of cork (you will need two circles). These cork circles can then be glued to the inside of a small mason jar lid. Once inserted and glued into the lid, line the interior wall of the mason jar lid with felt and cut any excess that may stick over the top. To complete the lid, fold one piece of electrical tape over the edge of the wall (so that it sticks to the interior felt as well as the metal on the outside of the lid).
The next step is to measure the can cozy to size. Place the lid that you have just created on the pop can. With the lid still, put on the can cozy. Our can cozy did not have a bottom however, if your can cozy does have a bottom, you can ignore this next step. Cut the can cozy 2mm below the bottom of the can. With the extra fabric, cut a circle and sew this circle onto the bottom of your can cozy. You may now place your pop can into your cozy and make sure everything fits.
As long as your lid, cozy and pop can all fit, you may move onto this next step. Remove the pop can from the can cozy. Off to the side, measure 3 metres of copper wire. Sand the ends of the wire (as copper wire has a coating), so that you can get an electrical current. Carefully wrap your copper wire evenly spaced around the pop can. Make sure to leave approximately 10 centimeters of extra wire on both ends of the can so it can come out of the beaker and attach to the (14-volt) battery.
To assemble the thermos, you must now place the can cozy onto the pop can that has been covered in wire (be careful not to move the wire too much). Place this pop can with the can cozy into the 400 mL beaker with the Copper wires feeding out of the pouring spout. If you choose to decorate your thermos, now is the time. We chose to make ours look like a penguin.
The final step is to connect your copper wires to the battery and wait as your thermos heats up. You can choose to pour your water in at any time!
The basics of our design started with a pop can wrapped in copper wire. We chose to use the tin can due to its high thermal conductivity. This allowed the heat transferred from the 14-volt battery to be easily transferred to the pop can, therefore warming the water. Our lid was constructed of a metal mason jar lid lined with cork and sealed with felt and a layer of tape. The Cork allowed for minimal heat loss because of its very low conductivity (0.035) and the lining of felt and tape allowed for a tight seal around the pop can when the thermos lid was put on. Lastly, on the lid we allowed for water vapor to escape through a small hole in the centre of the metal lid. We decided to have our thermos attached to the 14-volt battery to allow for maximum heat conservation in the can. While the water was being maintained at 98-102 degrees Celsius from the battery the water vapor escaped through our lids hole to allow for the pressure inside the can to release. Just under the lid, around the pop can and copper wires we used a foam cup cozy to contain the heat produced by the wire and ensure the heat was directed towards the water not the glass beaker.
Finally, our outer layer of the thermos was the glass beaker and the penguin cup cozy. The glass beaker was our last addition to allow for minimal heat loss. Glass has a relatively low thermal conductivity (1.0) which helped alongside the penguin cup cozy to maintain heat and allow for optimal aesthetics.

Beacon DPW clears streets of snow after stormPosted: Updated:
Beacon DPW crews worked hard to clear the mess Mother Nature dumped on the Hudson Valley overnight Monday.
Beacon Superintendent of Streets Mike Manzi says they lucked out in Beacon because the storm brought wet, heavy snow instead of ice, so it was much easier for his crews to quickly clear the city's streets down to the pavement.
"Once the snow really started coming down, we got everybody out and in the plows and started scraping everything and once the snow kind of subsided it melted off pretty good for us," says Manzi.
Snowblowers plowed through the sidewalks Monday as people dug out with the sun out.
Shirley Cumberbatch says she just stayed in all morning and waited until temperatures rose and the snow started to melt to take her daily stroll in downtown Beacon. While some say this snow was pretty easy to deal with, it still left them wondering how much longer Old Man Winter is going to stick around.

cyan AG: cyan and Wirecard agree on strategic partnership for Cyber-Security Solutions for Banks and Fintechs
- Long-term partnership agreed on
- Integration of cyan's "Endpoint Security" solution into Wirecard apps
- Not only apps, but also end devices will be better protected in the future
Munich, July 9, 2019 - Wirecard, the global innovation leader in digital financial technology, which serves banks, companies and private end customers with its services, has signed a long-term partnership with cyan, the Munich-based cyber security specialist, with the common goal of making the end devices of customers of banks and fintech companies even more secure.
Financial services are increasingly being consumed via mobile devices such as smartphones or tablets. As a result, the requirements to secure sensitive data on mobile end devices are increasing in order to prevent data theft and data misuse.
Around fifty percent of all Internet users have already been victims of a cyber crime. The reasons are manifold. Often this is the unknowingly passing on of personal data or the unconscious downloading of malware.
By integrating cyan's "Endpoint Security" solution into apps developed by Wirecard, end devices will also be protected against identity theft, viruses, malware and harmful apps in the future.
Kilian Thalhammer, VP Product Management Payment & Risk at Wirecard: "The mobile applications developed by Wirecard meet the highest security standards with regards to data security, encryption, authorization of payment transactions and consumer authentication. By working with cyan, we can now not only ensure the security of customer data within our applications, but also contribute to the security of the entire end device. The scope of services and the modular architecture of cyan's solution as well as the large number of existing customers convinced us that cyan is an exclusive strategic partner for endpoint security".
Peter Arnoth, CEO cyan AG: "We are very pleased to cooperate with Wirecard to make transactions even more secure for millions of customers. For us, this is a further proof that we were able to convince with both our technical competence and our customer orientation. We are thus realizing our claim to equip banks and insurance companies with our solutions for end customers in addition to telecommunications networks".
