nkurz, thanks a bunch for taking the survey!
The problem of nuisance calls is a real one, indeed. To be honest, I hadn't realized how many I receive myself until I started taking count of them. And as you rightly pointed out, we answer them because we think that they might be important. Subsequently, I've missed some important calls because I thought that they might be spam (sigh!).
I've some research experience where carriers were involved and realized that they have a huge sway with the politicos. So practically, I have doubts that getting them to be held accountable is gonna happen.
The National Do Not Call registry works, but telemarketers and other such 'callers' always find a way around it. One slick feature I found in Android lately is that it asked (after I received a call from an unknown number) if the call was a spam. So it kind of blacklists some numbers locally. Regarding what you seek, doesn't Google Voice kind of does that?
