TRAI Consults Meta and Google on Sharing Spam Complaint Data With Telecom Operators

TRAI is in talks with Meta and Google to integrate spam complaints from platforms like WhatsApp and Google’s dialer with telecom operators’ systems. The framework would link user‑reported spam data to the telecom industry’s Distributed Ledger Technology platform and TRAI’s Do Not Disturb portal, giving regulators a fuller view of repeat offenders. Still under consultation, the initiative reflects TRAI’s push to bridge internet platforms and telecom networks against spam.
