Under this new legislation:

  • Telecommunications companies must block calls for certain numbers (to prevent calls from coming in across different providers).
  • Providers must make sure a call to you is actually coming from the number that shows up.
  • Companies are now allowed to block calls from certain numbers likely to be fake.
