[VoiceOps] National Do Not Call Registry"

[Paul Timmins]

They can delegate their access to you, and you can use that to verify 
they have legitimate access to the areas in charge, and then maintain 
your data by compositing the entire list all of your customers have 
access to and adding their SAN to your client list. I think they have to 
do something to verify the relationship, then you can download their 
data with your account and everything's nice and legal and shiny. You 
just have to have a mechanism to make sure they maintain an active 
subscription for the data they are trying to access (so for example, you 
don't return data in texas if they only subscribe to 5 area codes in 
illinois).

I looked at doing this for telcodata.us a while back and it was a LOT of 
effort to go through and I didn't have time to code it at the time, but 
it's a valuable service and I'm sure there's a way to make a go of it. 
Same with LNP data use for wireless scrubbing - your carrier rules don't 
actually allow it to be used for telemarketing list washing, you have to 
do something similar with iconnectiv. They have a similar arrangement 
where each customer has to pay for access to the DB for that particular 
purpose. It wasn't wholly unreasonable and you could make a go of it if 
you had 5 or so customers out of the gate (my math) but you'd think this 
would just be something easy you could do with the data you have, and 
it's just never that easy because someone found a way to monetize the 
everliving shit out of data they handle on the behalf of the nation.

It looks like if we were going to offer an API for customers to check if a number is in the data base before they complete a call they would each need a license or subscription.  We are not able to aggregate the data.
