By Walt Hickey The annual back-to-school sale on paid subscriptions to Numlock is back, it’s the best deal of the year, 30 percent off your first year, and you need to redeem it by September 5. Fined The FCC has levied a $5,134,500 fine against two provocateurs who made over 1,100 robocalls peddling election misinformation, the largest-ever fine under the TCPA law that bars illegal robocalling. The Michigan Attorney General last year lodged four felony counts against the pair, which they allege made 85,000 calls in August of 2020 in Michigan, Illinois, New York, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Finally, the feds have laid down the law and shown that there’s no escape from justice, as long as you break the law in the single most obvious fashion. If you’ll excuse me, my dear personal friend Maybe Junk is trying to call me, I already missed Scam Likely earlier today and if I don’t take this I might miss the call from my beloved college friend Unknown Caller.
