Lingo Telecom has agreed to pay $1 million to settle an FCC enforcement action after transmitting a deepfake robocall of President Joe Biden’s voice to New Hampshire voters.

The call, created by political consultant Steve Kramer, urged voters not to participate in the Democratic primary. As part of the settlement, Lingo must follow strict caller ID authentication rules.

The FCC also recently banned AI-generated voices in robocalls without consent and proposed rules for political advertisers to disclose AI use.
