Robocalls, automated telephone calls that deliver a recorded message, typically on behalf of a political party or telemarketing company, are on the rise. T-Mobile said its new feature identifies authentic calls across the networks with the sign “Caller Verified” appearing on phone screens. Last month, 5.2 billion robocalls were placed, an average of 168.8 million per day, according to YouMail, a robocall management company that tracks the volume of calls. Scams make up about 40 percent of all robocalls.

The feature uses an industry standard, called “Secure Telephony Identity Revisited and Secure Handling of Asserted information using toKENs ,” or STIR/SHAKEN, to identify authentic calls across the networks. In February, Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai told major telecommunications providers that the agency would step in if they failed to implement the standard to fight robocalls this year.

Now if only they would stop sending me stupid software updates. I DON'T WANT THEM!

Is it possible to send spam and to sell 'spam protection tool' simultaneously in USA! You all are CRAZY! CRAZY!

I hope it works, robo calls are a major pain in the a**. It's getting to the point where people don't answer calls if they don't already know who's calling. Lousy state of affairs.

How will this work if the Robocallers are now using real phone numbers?

Heroes!
