Re: My 3 steps to avoiding robocalls.

The first thing that should be done is to remove the ability to spoof your number. That would stop a lot of it. I get calls from around the country, ask with the same "calling about the accident you had you were innocent of", or "calling about your workplace accident" recordings. All have spoofed numbers.

Add some security and authentication to all calls please!

Secondly, enough with the fines. Most are ltd companies, so if their accounts are empty nowt can be done. Make directors of companies that break the law criminally liable and put them away
