Actually, I'm totally against robocalls (or any unsolicited calls on my cell phone)...

But unfortunately, I keep getting calls from crazy liberals!!!

Oddly enough I demand a human to berate if a business is going to call me and try to sell me something. Call hiring telemarketers the cost of applying for the big government protections creating a corporation gives you.

Why not set it up where people have to agree to
robocalls that credit their phone accounts either
.05 per call or per minute
.10 per call or per minute
.25 etc.
and then the robocall companies can choose
which numbers they agree to call at those rates.

People who don't want calls can assign higher rates.
People who don't mind calls and want to get the credits
can assign lower rates. so it's like shopping for advertising rates.

Fuck no.

And this is scary. We can't have dems trying to find real issues they might be able to serve the interests of the American people with. That could work.


Luckily, I am confident that such a reasonable concept will be lost in the current Dem Party campaign.

No need for any of that.

You can get a call block app for a cell phone that will only allow the phone to ring if the number calling you is in your contacts list.
You can block text messages as well.

All we have to do now is have a device for a land line that will sync to your cell phone contact list and block all calls from numbers not in your contacts

 

[Capri]

Robocalls are already illegal.
The government can't do anything to enforce the law and literally trillions of robocalls go out every month.
Yang is either ignorant or knows this and is making an empty political promise, saying what everyone wants to hear.

Wanting to ban circumcision costs him the votes of jews and Muslims. So I'm going with ignorance.

Robocalls isn't free speech. It's an invasion of one's home life. The robocall people can go stand on a street corner and talk all they want about whatever they want without fear of prosecution. Just don't call my phone that I pay for and try to force me to listen to you.
