Jonathan Marashlian will be speaking at the Cloud Connections Conference

“What California is doing is it’s undertaken a rulemaking proceeding to determine whether or not there are different types of voice -over IP service that require a more stringent degree of regulation,” says Jonathan Marashlian. Marashlian is a member of the CCA’s Government Affairs Committee that carefully monitors legal regulatory issues in the US, UK, EU and elsewhere, as part of the CCA’s effort to look out for the best interested on the cloud communications industry and the industry’s millions of customers. “Regulation that may impose market entry requirements like licensing might require them to get surety bonds, may even impose transfer of control obligations on certain types of voiceover IP providers.” He cautions that a single state can cause a “snowball effect”.

In this podcast, Marashlian gives us a quick update on this and several other hot topics that may, or may already, be impacting cloud communications companies. We get a glimpse of some of the news, on the legal front, that will be discussed at the upcoming Cloud Connections Conference: spam, robocalling, fraud, STIR/SHAKEN, “…call it the whole ecosystem of cracking down on us, bad traffic, bad calls, telemarketing calls.”
