Superb news! I wonder if this is partly due to Sadhguru's Cauvery Calling project?

Wait, you mean that cute girl did not accidentally text me instead of her boyfriend?

I don't put anything beyond people anymore on the internet. Statistically speaking, there is probably someone out there who believes GW is a good thing and actively does things to increase it.

Having lived in Africa and seen the devastation HIV/AIDS causes this is massive news. I pray this kind of therapy will one day be accessible to all and for a cheap cost. 🙏

Doing this and banning calling from blocked or unknown number would reduce US call traffic by 80% a day. It's ridiculous to get all of these calls from what shows is a local number but you cannot call it back or it is literally someone else phone number that never called you.

Ahh this is why I had to get my company registered with tcr, RingCentral was blowing up my work email stating if we used sms features, we had to register our brand and campaign...probably still won't help honestly

Again.
I mean it worked so well the last time.
I'd love it if this were a solution. My mother gets dozens of these every day. She's cognitively impaired and sometimes she *does* click the links in a text message no matter how fishy it is.

Don’t hold your breath. Remember the FTC “Do not Call Registry”? That was 2003. Yeah, that’s working great, eh?

How about just blocking 100% of mobile advertising as a whole? These companies all use something similar to send out texts and it’s ridiculously intrusive. I

One of the big reasons I stick with my pixel phone. I went to iPhone for a year and temporarily had a loaner Samsung for a few weeks. Google seems to be the only manufacturer that actually tries to block spam on calls and text. Any other phone I get at least five calls a day and constantly get text spam. On pixel I get none. Even if a call makes it past initial blocks it's screened and I can see the call hang up before the screening announcement finishes. I can go into spam messages and see thousands of blocked messages I was never bothered by. It really is bliss.

It is as if the robo calls got replaced with scam messages.

Is anyone else getting record amounts of these texts? I never used to get these now I’m getting 10-20 spam texts per day

Why doesn’t the FCC step in and stop our states from selling our personal info that we are required to provide to our DMV/BMV’s to get plates and licenses.

I get mms messages from unknown numbers. Seriously? Who's going to download unknown crap from an unknown source?
