Re: FCC makes major changes to USF and to VoIP carrier payments

said by hszeto:

"calling party's telephone number" is the telephone number your daughter used in nearby farmhouse in this case.

According to wikipedia, "calling party" can mean either the person or the device:

"The calling party (also called caller, call originator or A-party) is a person who (or device that) initiates a telephone call"

Yes---for example, a burglar alarm system can initiate a phone call to the alarm center. Or a telemarketer could use an autodialer.

But how does that help us out with the question at hand---such as the example I cited with Sam, Jamal, and Pedro.

One understands the intention of FCC to address concern from abuse of ICC would understand FCC meant the originating calling device as calling party, not the person making the call.

If FCC makes rule the calling party is a person, then people have no personal telephone number cannot make call!

AFAICT, anything on wikipedia is NOT official, but just for informative purposes.
