FCC to remove companies from robocall database for non-compliance [pdf]
Thank god, at least some sort of enforcement.<p>At least 90% of phone calls I get are robocalls or spam. But, as the head of a large household, I can't disable unknown callers; who knows if that urgent care I took my kid to 6 months ago needs to call because I put my email address in wrong and they couldn't bill me, and I don't want the account to go to collections. Or maybe some random clerk from the city needs to contact me about property taxes?<p>I just do not have a definitive contact list of every number that might call me with critical information, and I'm not confident they would leave a voicemail. Or even if they leave a voicemail, it's often impossible to return a call because the caller is originating from some complex web of VOIP systems and when I call back I get a machine asking for an extension, which the caller forgot to leave in the voicemail!
