    It should be the other way round. Telco providers should be fined for any spam call and -text they don’t prevent from happening.

      This would incentivise them to screen/monitor my calls and texts. No thanks.I don’t need Verizon turning into google and monitoring/data mining all my shit.

      SHAKEN/STIR is about as far as I want them to go. Validate with the call meta data that it’s not a spoofed call. Once I know it’s not spoofed, I can trust my on device apps to block what I don’t want.

        i noticed the spam actually increased because of the screening service of pixel. when i switched to a non-iphone,samsung or pixel there was significantly less spam.

        I would not want them to monitor my calls, either. I meant exactly enforcing SHAKEN/STIR - if they cannot guarantee that the call/text is from the number shown on the display, don’t route it.

        This way you can block the spammers or even sue them if you are on a do-not-call list.
