In its Wednesday letter to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Google has said that with a recently-developed Google Voice fix, the access of the calling service will be blocked to fewer local calling exchanges.

The recent Google move indicates the company's partial acceptance of the concerns of the regulators that it is circumventing the regulations that call for a seamless connection to the phone calls of the consumers.

In a blog post pertaining to the recent decision, Richard Whitt, Washington telecom and media counsel for Google, said: "We told the FCC today that Google Voice now restricts calls to fewer than 100 specific phone numbers, all of which we have good reason to believe are engaged in traffic pumping schemes," that are essentially designed for increasing costs for phone carriers.

Drawing the FCC's attention to "the nation's broken carrier compensation system," Whitt further said that the numbers that are still blocked help generate over 160 times the estimated traffic volumes, and make up a gigantic 26 percent of Google's connection costs per month.

The letter mentioned that while Google had developed the fix to address the pertinent issue of blocking calls to rural consumers, the agency should also consider changing the way in which phone companies recompense one another for connecting calls.
