Cloud Communications Alliance #CCA, INCOMPAS File Joint Comments to the #FCC’s NPRM on Adopting Protections for Consumers Related to the Use of AI in Robocalls and Robotexts The Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA) and INCOMPAS the internet and competitive networks association, filed joint comments in response to the Federal Communications Commission’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking proposing to adopt protections for consumers related to the use of artificial intelligence in robocalls and seeking comment on positive uses of developing technologies that can alert consumers to unwanted or illegal calls and texts, including AI-generated calls. “Our members are committed to mitigating the threat of illegal robocalls and robotexts to their customers while working with the Commission to concurrently identify ways to preserve consumer trust in voice and messaging services while promoting policies that encourage competition, innovation and economic development. Together, our members will be leaders in employing #AI technologies to enhance the customer’s voice service experience and protect residential and business customers from fraudulent robocalls and robotexts. While the Commission must play an important role in ensuring that AI technologies are developed and deployed with the safeguards necessary to protect consumers and competition, the agency’s approach must take into account the noted benefits that the current flexible approach has allowed, including our members’ development of innovative call detection and alerting solutions that consumers and providers alike will use to expose fraudulent robocalls or robotexts,” said the associations.

Shown is D2X Multicast Broadcast SFN RAN Topologies being shared. D2X Physical layer is Disaggregated (Cloud) and traffic of (3) BVNO sharing spectrum is routed to either the Wide Area (SFN) or (SFN) Underlay with targeted local edge insertion. Shown also is concept of D2X Non-3GPP RAT interworking layer 2 Datacenter to Off-load 5G NR (5G PDCP) traffic which is then encapsulated D2X and placed on (SFN) underlay Topology to reach service area desired. (SLA) This harmonized D2X broadcast SFN Topology is seen as synergistic and compliments 5G NR aligned O-RAN principles in future when interworking with Non-3GPP broadcast in heterogeneous network shown. #D2X #5GNR #Interwork #SFN #Topology #Cloud

## Where is fiber broadband on the hype cycle? The provocative and insightful Fierce Network op-ed (by Linda Hardesty) highlights concerns in the U.S. broadband market despite the current excitement driven by the Broadband Equity, Access & Deployment (BEAD) program. There are signs of maturity, with stagnant subscriber growth raising concerns about market saturation, sustainability, and declining consumer enthusiasm. We at Amdocs believe that there is a huge opportunity. To anticipate this long-term trend, Communication Providers can integrate broadband into modern lifestyles by offering more innovative home features, personalized bundles including non-telco services and devices, exclusive content, and enhanced security to differentiate from 'utility' broadband, using Fiber as the faster and more reliable vehicle. Emphasizing superior customer experiences, innovative service bundles, and community engagement can transform broadband from a commodity into a lifestyle necessity, maintaining growth and consumer interest. In short, Broadband Operations have to Make It Amazing for their customers. #amdocs #fiber #broadband #MakeItAmazing Amdocs Amdocs Networks ProCom Consulting, Inc.
