FCC Seeks Record Refresh on Videoconferencing Platforms

Comments are due June 21, replies by July 18, on a record refresh on proposed rules enabling people with disabilities to access and use videoconferencing platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Webex. The FCC’s Disability Advisory Committee approved a report on the item in February, seeking additional clarity (see 2202240064). In the notice, in Thursday’s Federal Register, the Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau seeks further comment on the kinds of services encompassed by the term ‘‘interoperable video conferencing service.’’
