A more thorough explanation:

South Dakota has laws that regulate telemarketing and telephonic anti-solicitation. These laws are designed to protect consumers from unwanted phone calls and scams. Violating these laws can result in legal action against the telemarketer or company.

Telemarketing is the act of selling products or services over the phone. Telephonic anti-solicitation laws in South Dakota require telemarketers to follow certain rules when making calls to consumers. These rules include:

• Identifying themselves and the company they represent
• Not calling before 8:00 a.m. or after 9:00 p.m.
• Not calling consumers who have requested to be on the National Do Not Call Registry

Violating these rules can result in fines and legal action against the telemarketer or company.

South Dakota also has laws that prohibit unlawful trade practices. This includes deceptive or fraudulent practices used by businesses to gain an unfair advantage over consumers. One example of an unlawful trade practice is making false claims about a product or service in order to sell it to consumers.

For example, a telemarketer may call a consumer and claim that their product can cure a certain medical condition, even though there is no scientific evidence to support this claim. This would be considered an unlawful trade practice and could result in legal action against the telemarketer or company.
