Anybody can add his number a few hundred thousand time to robo call lists?

Just another reason to vote for Democrats people!!! GO VOTE!!!

I think I might just disable the phone app until after the election. Only get spam calls as it is.

There are so many robocalls now, the emergency phone in our elevator is getting called. Multiple times a day it gets calls for Medicare, extended car insurance, and stuff like that.

Since I get multiple robocalls every single day, it appears that nobody gives a fuck about the law, so who cares what the FCC says? It won't make one whit of difference, they do what they want anyway.

Why is it when we pay for a phone, people (or AI entities) feel entitled to call us to sell us trinkets or give us messages? If we have a front door, the same thing happens, people we don't know feel entitled to knock and attempt to sell us something.

We pay a lot of money for phones, even more for residence doors. Others view those as opportunities to harass. We're on the Do Not Call list. Phone rings multiple times per day, robocallers who refuse to leave messages. We cannot answer the telephone any longer. Why are we paying monthly for the phone when we can no longer answer it?

Perhaps our system of trespass laws are not properly protecting us?

All Republicans can die now

Last minute change, you say? Right when desperate MAGAs are shooting their wad and dumping tons of money into advertising to try to limit the damage, you say?

Huh.

Joke is in them, I stopped answering unknown phone numbers because it's shit.

I've always assumed the Republican party's primary goal was self-enrichment. But at this point this is all so absurd it's starting to feel like their primary objective is simply to do whatever is worst for Americans based off of some internal bet they've made with themselves.

It's all just so comically detrimental to our nation. Literally every single move they make. It's almost like they're America's enemy or something. I can't think of another enemy that's doing more harm to us.

I feel like I would go absolutely insane and needed to end myself if I spent just 2 hours in the US during election time.

Wait? Those robocalls are illegal?

Huh. Somebody tell the GOP that?

I am shocked that they are being limited now

More calls I won’t answer

This is in keeping with the Republican policy that everything should be worse.

Republicans - the party led by a huge con-man - want to allow one the most "con' of cons out there. What a surprise! 🙄

The only reason they haven't already allowed it is fear of what the other side could do with it, even though that side isn't quite as devious or quick to come up with ways to screw people over (not that they don't, they're just not a quick or good at it).

Nowhere in the article did I find the link to actually file a comment on this. The public comment period is mentioned, but no link.

Edit: Ah, it's not as straightforward as a direct link, but I found the info on how to file here:

Yeah… you must be insane if you think anyone wants more phone calls. I barely want the calls from my family and friends these days lol.

Of course consent is a concept they choose not to acknowledge for others.

Also, doesn't Apple do a pretty good job of flagging incoming calls that are likely spam? Seems my phone barely lights up but maybe I did something I forget to enable that, LOL.

If that's the case, waiting for conservative assholes like Carr and tiny-d donnie to start leaning on outfits like Apple to respect the "freedom" of con-men and bad-faith political figures to robo-call users of their devices.

This smug asshole. Really looking out for the American people and free speech and such.

🙄

Anybody who is skilled with AI chatbots, turn them.

How could there possibly be more?

Answering a robocall and not immediately hanging up should be grounds for losing your right to vote.
