India forces caller-ID apps to feed spam reports to telcos

Quick source take

TechCrunch reports that the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India has amended commercial communication rules, requiring caller ID apps like Truecaller to share user spam reports with telecom operators.

Additionally, the new regulations mandate that automated and AI-driven voice calls must be declared in advance to telecom operators or face being treated as spam.
