I present to you, this article: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/11/smarter-living/stop-robocalls.html?_r=0 https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/11/smarter-living/stop-roboc... . The following excerpt was particularly interesting: Download apps such as Truecaller, RoboKiller, Mr. Number, Nomorobo and Hiya, which will block the calls. YouMail will stop your phone from ringing with calls from suspected robocallers and deliver a message that your number is out of service. Mr. Quilici said phone companies, such as T-Mobile, Verizon and AT&T, also have tools to combat robocalls. They work by blocking calls from numbers known to be problematic. ... And then there is the Jolly Roger Telephone Company, which turns the tables on telemarketers. This program allows a customer to put the phone on mute and patch telemarketing calls to a robot, which understands speech patterns and inflections and works to keep the caller engaged. The Jolly Roger solution looks delightful to me. It doesn't have an app as such but the solutions it offers are not bad and the price is good.
