FTC Appeals Court Decision Invalidating Do Not Call List
The FTC last Friday appealed a federal judge's decision declaring the do-not-call plan a violation of free speech and hence unconstitutional. Officials said that for now telemarketers will not have to comply with the Oct. 1 starting date for the do-not-call list. However, the Direct Marketing Association announced that it is urging its members to abide by the rules voluntarily and cease calling numbers on the registry this week.
