100% of phone calls to my mobile device are robo calls. I get around 5 per day and (because of this) I never answer the phone. I actually tried to uninstall the dialer app but it seems to be fairly well-integrated into Android.

The humans in my life call via voip(ish) apps (Messenger and Facetime mostly).

Part of my monthly cell service cost is ostensibly for the line. Which I don't use and would prefer not to have all.

Aaah the beauty of "pay per airtime" fleecing by US phone companies

Meanwhile phone spammers pay 10x less for international minutes

I think very few non-prepaid mobile plans have metered airtime for donestic calls anymore.

True, but it doesn't matter, because it's not the caller paying the extra fee to call a mobile, you are.

The pricing structure incentives robocalls
