What happened to the Do-Not-Call list? Is that dead or just not enforced?

  Lamentably only honest brokers follow it. Non-profits don't have to I think, and scammers just ignore it. Caller ID is more than useless as it always seems spoofed. We've lost control of our telephone network.

    Caller ID can be useful for letting every number you don't recognize go to voicemail.

      Yes, that is for sure the way to go.

  Enforcement of the Do-Not-Call list seems rather sparse. "To date, the Commission has brought 134 enforcement actions against companies and telemarketers for Do Not Call, abandoned call, robocall and Registry violations. To date, 121 of these FTC enforcement actions have been resolved, and in those cases the agency has recovered over $50 million in civil penalties and $71 million in redress or disgorgement." https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/media-resources/do-not-call-registry/enforcement https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/media-resources/do-not-call-...
