On July 27, a bipartisan coalition of 50 state and territorial attorneys general (AGs) submitted a letter to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) urging the FCC to adopt stronger “know your customer” (KYC) requirements for originating voice service providers.

In July 2026, OpenAI released an experimental artificial intelligence (AI) cybersecurity model for internal testing. The model allegedly gained unauthorized access to several computer networks, resulting in an attack on Hugging Face, a widely used open-source AI platform that offers computation tools for building applications for machine learning. On August 25, Alabama AG Steve Marshall announced that he issued a formal subpoena to OpenAI and its CEO, Sam Altman, investigating the company’s handling of the incident and its broader oversight practices as a potential violation of Alabama’s Deceptive Trade Practices Act.
