Requires wireless communication method service providers disable services to stolen wireless phones

This bill, known as "Detective Brian Simonsen's Law," requires wireless service providers to stop services for stolen mobile phones. It mandates that carriers maintain programs to block devices identified as stolen on the GSMA block list, which is a shared industry database. Additionally, the law obligates carriers to report the unique identification numbers of newly stolen phones to this database and to suspend service immediately upon receiving a verified report from a customer. These measures aim to prevent the use of stolen phones on networks while ensuring stolen devices are tracked across the industry.
