I don't know the exact law, but it's related to older laws preventing Telecomm companies from blocking phone numbers without your consent, since it would start restricting information. There's a reason why the whole robocall thing took so long to even start being addressing that issue since laws had to be amended to even do something about it.

Btw, do you want your phone company to have the power to restrict your communication? Someone like me could decide you're an undesireable and restrict anyone from calling you. Good luck getting a job when no one can call you.

It's a bit of a leap a telecomm blocking me specifically as opposed to preventing the dissemination of material that is controversial at best and seditious at worst. And there are a number of federal laws that do apply to blocking websites, so it is not impossible. But I would like to read the law you mention myself.
