FCC Chairman Brendan Carr announced that the agency will vote on November 19th to allow prisons to jam contraband cellphones. This rule addresses a problem where 25,000 phones were recovered in 2024, with some facilities finding 6,000 each. The FCC Order permits but does not require facilities to deploy these jamming solutions.
