    It’s very difficult to achieve this as precision of the algorithms needs to be very very high to not effect legitimate traffic. Attackers will adapt, it’s a cat and mouse game

    ComReg couldn’t crack an egg. Never mind cracking down on Chinese scam gangs operating out of Myanmar, targeting Ireland using UK numbers.

    I believe a recruiter wants to talk to me a lot from different numbers and wants me to add their number to WhatsApp.

  4. Wish we could toggle the ability to block calls from international numbers. If I’m getting a call from someone I know abroad it’s gonna be via Whatsapp usually anyway.

    Instead of needing an ID to watch porn maybe make it you need to verify your identity to make calls.

    That way people can have the option to block un verified callers
