How fucking stupid is that? Sorry, but not having a good morning. This is like when I found out you can't set the number of rings either. Sometimes I just want to smash all my tech and go back to rocks, sticks, and leaves.

In US here. I do not remember last time I heard a robocall. A years ago? I did get one robocall message couple months back though.

@MxM111 @hedge @maynarkh I still get some robocalls, if they leave a message. Most people don't answer their phones if the calling number is not in their contacts list, so that has put a damper on the robocalls effectiveness. It also puts a damper on the effectiveness of political polling.

What's the point of answering the phone nowadays?
