I don't understand why the phone companies don't do more prevent this kind of thing in the USA.
In New Zealand, I have had periods where spam phone calls have been pretty bad for me. 2 or 3 a day for a week or so, and that was annoying.
But they always seem to stop.
The last spam call I got was long enough ago that it doesn't show up in my iphones call history. Certainly several months ago.
Can't the phone companies look at calls the same way email providers do and use all the information they have at their disposal to filter out the spam?
- swozey 7y agoA bunch of carriers like tmobile and att can filter spam at their network. I was getting 5+ a day so I'm testing tmobiles name ID. But it's an extra $4/month when it should be included. Most people just use hiya and all of the apps that community source the blocking. Tbh my experience is probably better with those.

- _jal 7y agoThis appears to be the new-style of "American innovation". You junk something up, break it, or otherwise make things worse and then take your cut out of restoring something resembling the status quo. Living in a gangster's paradise...
