The FCC likes to fine companies for not getting the required statement right. Oh, you didn't fill out the form right - that will be $20,000 please. The FCC came up with the rules after the 'pretexting' scandals and used a sledgehammer to kill a mosquito. In any case it's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. The rules do not prohibit using CPNI data internally for marketing, tech support, etc. but I see issues trying to authentice callers for things like email passwords, router passwords, wifi passwords. "Sorry ma'am, we can't reset your password because you can't remember your PIN number."

I seem to remember Steve Coran warns us each year when the due date approaches and about the whopping fine for non compliance. I’m guessing this has to cover things like what our employees do if someone calls for tech support or wanting to make a change to their service, or if their computer guy calls for their PPPoE password or to find out what speed plan they are on? And not only verifying the person calling is who they say they are, but also that they are authorized on the account? This could be fun.

The lat/lon and sector specifications are entered in the data for the base station. That gives you the complete polygon for all possible subscribers in the first place. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 3/19/2015 11:34 AM, Chuck McCown wrote: Good point.

No more helping out the kid with his router - the account owner MUST be found! And verify everything with the super secret password. Ok - so I exaggerate, but this is going to make things more difficult. I'm not sure what exactly the point of 'encrypt all customer data' is given that the front end is still going to be a web interface that happily decrypts every bit of data and displays it in plain text. Never let logic get in the way of a bureaucrat implementing a politicians talking points.

We all get ROW access, we can only do traffic shaping if we are doing it for technical reasons and not discriminating (we can discriminate, but it has to be all streaming or all browsing or all of one certain type of traffic). And we must, must, must encrypt all customer info. Not just keep it on an internal network, but any spreadsheet you have with customer identifying information must be encrypted. I am not seeing a big impact for WISPS. And you are all exempt until December 15th too if you have less than 100,000 subscribers.
