I agree that it wouldn't catch all spam, but it might help reduce the amount of recorded robocalls waiting for someone naive enough to engage.


I have a better suggestion - every phone call will involve a microtransaction (e.g. $0.01) from the caller to the recipient, even if not picked up. I want to see anyone make robocalls then.


I'd be open to that (hell, I'd pay even more) if it meant I received 99% less spam calls
