With the ease of obtaining phone numbers there probably needs to be a different approach as well. Blocking a set of their outbound numbers would prove nothing more than a brief annoyance - not to mention CID spoofing still being a possibility from VOIP companies that allow it.
- ffk 14y agoFurthering this argument, if a robocaller uses a phone number briefly and discards the number after it is banned, the next user attempting to make a legitimate emergency call using the banned number may not get through.

- elliottcarlson 14y agoExcellent point - it seems that tightening up the ease of getting a new number would be important - yet that just causes other issues, people just don't want to have to jump through hoops.
