Will this also prevent spoofed text messages?
- RKearney 7y agoI have never received a spoofed SMS message so I already thought this was impossible.
- ronack 7y agoIt's definitely a thing and prevent some SMS use cases due to this security hole. This new FCC doc only references tracing the original sender. "The FCC has also called on the industry to “trace back” illegal spoofed calls and text messages to their original sources."
- DaniloDias 7y agoIt will not. These concepts could be applied towards that purpose if the MNOs wanted to rejigger messaging within their networks & for inter-carrier connectivity- but pursuing that solution would likely be more challenging to implement than this solution.
