The FCC MUST reject the request made by a Republican group that would allow political groups to make robocalls to cell phones without people’s permission. Putting Americans in a position where they can be fed misinformation through AI-generated deception ahead of a crucial election is yet another attempt by Republicans to mislead voters. The risk here is severe: unleashing a Pandora’s box of election mis- and disinformation made more believable with AI. The approaching election is a reason to preserve safeguards, not suspend them. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/senator-urges-fcc-reject-conservative-groups-bid-use-political-ai-generated-2026-10-19/
