ZipDX Withdraws Bid for Industry Traceback Designation

ZipDX withdrew its letter of intent to become the registered consortium to head industry efforts to trace unlawful robocalls (see 2207060065). The company said it "reached an agreement" with USTelecom's industry traceback group (ITG) to "provide call examples" from its robocall surveillance platform to the ITG that will be used to initiate tracebacks, said a letter filed Monday in docket 20-22. "Through this collaboration, the two organizations hope to enhance each other’s respective initiatives in ways that will best protect American consumers from illegal robocalls," ZipDX said.
