minus-squareCrashumbc@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up40arrow-down1·3 months agoThe bigger issue here is spam calls. If that shit was stopped, people wouldn’t ignore unknown callers. While your solution is good it only solves part of the problem.
minus-squareGBU_28@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17arrow-down1·3 months agoNo, if a company was calling me and I didn’t want to talk to them, I’d still be better informed with caller id. A spam call would be ignored because I wouldn’t recognize the business name
minus-squareperson420@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down1·3 months agoThe issue is with cell phones and mobile networks. They don’t all support passing CNAM (caller name delivery) between them. I worked in telecom for over 15 years, dealt with only businesses, I never met a company that didn’t have CNAM set up.
