When I first scanned through this article, I thought it might spell trouble for Scott Walker's perpetual campaign for the governor's chair. It was putting strict control on robocalls. Then I heard it wasn't going to affect political robocalling (funny how these laws never seem to affect politicians).
But rereading the article, I wonder if it would apply after all, especially considering this:
“American consumers have made it crystal clear that few things annoy them more than the billions of commercial telemarketing robocalls they receive every year,” FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz said in a statement. “This bombardment of prerecorded pitches, senseless solicitations, and malicious marketing will be illegal.”It still seems like it would fit for Walker's campaign, doesn't it?
And remember, Walker has a history of having problems with his robocalls anyway.
