[Discuss] CU attempts to end robocalls [OT]



A slightly off-topic technology issue, but I suspect people here are
interested. Consumer's Union (a.k.a., Consumer Reports) is running a
campaign to end illegal robocalls by convincing the phone companies to
offer free filtering tools. They have garnered 500,000 signatures.

Personally, I've been getting these scams on my Verizon cell phone
recently and they're annoying as hell.
