Obviously, from only the headline, issuing fines is failing to do the work, with a shortfall on the scale of 5 orders of magnitude. The FCC needs to start criminal prosecutions, including for officers in the major carriers who continue to enable these crimes. The massive scale of the waste of resources in unconscionable, even beyond the scale of the illegal scams. This is not a hard technical problem to solve, only requires a bit of will. Perhaps implement a system of verified call call sources, all un-verified call sources pay 10¢/call -- probably instantly uneconomical. Until then, jail for these criminals, and by that, I mean the officers of the scam companies, not the call center workers
