TCPA Violation: QuoteWizard Facing Damages
In a recent critical certification ruling against QuoteWizard, the industry was given a preview of what to expect come January 2025. “Every single class member clicked on a form consent.

AI: The Gamechanger With Massive Red Flags
Propmodo has an interesting feature piece on the use of AI for the real estate market. Amongst the key findings: AI can't replace the human touch.

New regulations are being implemented to crack down on robocalls and spammy texts, so proceed with care when leveraging these new technologies!

The FCC Strikes Back Against AI Voice Channels
According to TCPAworld.com, the FCC has made a seismic shift in the AI landscape, proposing a groundbreaking new rule that could reshape the future of AI voice channels.

According to Troutman Amin’s Tori Guidry, “This NPRM hasn’t hit the Federal Register yet, but expect it in the next 6-8 weeks. That’s when the clock starts ticking on comments and feedback, so be ready.” The R.E.A.C.H. committee is planning to address this issue soon.
