It's 2021 and we still haven't figured out how to stop robocall car warranty scams.
Like, SpaceX can land office-building-sized rockets on drone ships in the middle of the ocean, but the phone companies / FTC / Congress somehow can't figure out how to block / track down / put out of business these scammers?
I wonder if a 1-5 cents a call phone tax - replacing other per line phone taxes - would end this practice.
Or maybe a sort of Captcha, but for phone calls, where your phone automatically answers it and determines whether it's a robot or not ("Press 77 if you are a human") before forwarding the actual human to your phone.
