Which entity oversees the National Do Not Call list?

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) oversees the National Do Not Call list. This list was created in response to consumer complaints about the volume of unwanted telemarketing calls. The FTC is responsible for enforcing the provisions of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act and regulating the practices of telemarketers to protect the privacy of consumers. By managing the Do Not Call registry, the FTC provides consumers a way to opt-out of receiving unsolicited marketing calls, strengthening consumer rights and addressing concerns surrounding invasiveness in personal communication.

While there are other regulatory bodies, such as the Federal Communications Commission, which also has a role in telecommunications regulations, the specific oversight and enforcement of the National Do Not Call list fall under the jurisdiction of the FTC, making it the correct answer. The State Government and the Department of Insurance do not have any governing authority over this particular aspect of telemarketing practices.
