I totally expect this will be fairly effective, because there aren't any major forces pushing against.
- It's a simple technical problem to identify potential spammers. There are clear patterns & habits of robocallers to id them.
- It's fairly simple to confirm spam/scams by pretending to be a target.
- Scam spam calls, though profitable, are relatively isolated and any public support will make them easier to trace. So we aren't facing huge lobby pressure to oppose the nearly universal support for spam reduction.
So it's really just a matter of allocating the resources to do something, which is exactly what this is.
- godelski 4y agoI think you're overestimating the ease of detecting spam. A lot of major companies have this issue. You may argue that it's a lack of will, but they have things in place and if it was easy they'd be effective.
