Ik sure that they won’t oopsie woopsie leak my number to spammers and scammers to sell me their advanced protection or something

Let’s call it what it is: a shake down

Let’s call it what should happen: arrests of the corpos that make these decisions

I hate to shill for Google, but the the pixel phone has call screening, and I rarely get spam to surface. It is one of the few actually great things that Google does.

There’s lots i hate about having a Pixel, but the spam protection isn’t one of them

My pixel automatically blocks most spam.

iPhone lets you block all ringing for incoming calls that aren’t in your contacts. Solved 99% of the issue for me

Just left verizon for google fi its so much cheaper
