Letting anybody in the world call you any time without any restrictions is absurd. It should be possible to enforce a mode that requires the caller to send you

Letting anybody in the world call you any time without any restrictions is absurd.
It should be possible to enforce a mode that requires the caller to send you a request for permission to call first (like contact request in Skype). And unless you explicitly granted such permission all calls from that number should be automatically rejected.
- orev 8y agoYou’re talking about a system that’s over 100 years old and has been in the hands of monopoly companies for most of that time. Ajit Pai has said (surprisingly astutely) that you can solve this problem by requiring some kind of authentication for calls. Even getting that in place seems like an impossible task (though for some reason he doesn’t see how someone in his position could force that to happen). What your talking about is more difficult than that.
