Ban robocalling 911. Security alarms require obtaining an alarm permit. Automated alarms notify the alarm company who call the customer. They ask if help is needed and what their security code is. If the customer says an actual emergency happened they then call 911. In my jurisdiction more than three false alarms results in a fine for the resident/business. The police generally don't respond to an alarm signal unless a person on site calls it in. Although once in the 1990s someone at work didn't know the burglar alarm keypad code and the police did eventually respond with guns drawn. That was a hair raising experience.
