I hope this addresses the abuse.
See [1]
It basically asks the telecom operators to implement
digitally signed certificates.
So it would work, if I understand it conceptually, like your web browser, when it receives https traffic unsigned certificate, or https traffic from a domain that's not part of the certificate chain.
Therefore, this mandate will prevent 'spoofing'.
And without spoofing, the spammers would necessarely have
to reveal their identity, and there are already bunch of
existing legislation to prevent them from doing this type of business.
I missed important business calls when in US. Because they were calling using same area code where my sim card was registered, so I thought it was from the area local to me.
It is horrible, I am sure people actually lost not just business value, but also had negative health impacting incidents, due to this abuse of telecommunications.

I just ignore calls from my prefix. There's literally nobody in my contacts that has the same prefix I have, and I consider it extremely unlikely that any legitimate calls will come from there. 90% of spam calls come from my prefix, and most of the rest come from out of state (different area code entirely). Another way is to just ignore all calls not in your contacts, and use Google voice's voicemail transcription (I think I've read about some way to do this with Twilio or another service, but I might be wrong).
