The Federal Communications Commission votes to allow telecom providers to block illegal and unwanted calls before they reach consumers, saying it will make an immediate difference for those plagued by scam calls.

The Federal Communications Commission voted on Thursday to allow telecom providers to block illegal and unwanted calls before they reach consumers, saying it will make an immediate difference for those plagued by scam calls.

The vote means that under existing rules your phone company can block unwanted calls based on a computer's assessment of the call, similar to a service some companies allow customers to use on an opt-in basis or or which requires a separate app.

It’s about time they do something right

How is Daniel Snyder supposed to make any money?

It’s about time!!

Just block untouchables from India and Pakistan! Until those countries fix the robo callers in their countries.

I’ve officially reached a point to where I have more numbers blocked than in my contacts. This will help

How about enforcing the do not call list

This guy has politicized the FCC and sold out Americans. Remember NetNeutrality He's doing to the FCC what Wheeler's doing to the EPA and what Mulvaney is doing to the Consumer Protection Bureau. Spoiler alert: None of it helps Americans.

Why did it take so long? Follow the money.

Oh my God did Ajit Pai just do something good?! ::brain vomits on itself::

Put them on hold and walk away. They blacklist your number after a few times and don’t call again.
