@arstechnica 99% of calls to my phone are robo calls. 25% are blocked by filters. the same is true for my email - 99% spam. SMS is a little better but only because I use it to communicate. this shit sucks.

@arstechnica How about I get $5 for every spam call/text message, paid daily from the carrier.

@arstechnica And it took them just, what, 30 years to come up with this??

@arstechnica They could just, make it actually illegal and fine the telcos for not blocking robo calls... the telcos know when a robo call campaign is going on too.
