Phone company profit motives have, so far, blossomed and assisted expansive robocall activity throughout the nation. The scammers rely on buying specialized access they need in order to robocall you, so that if a pecuniary disincentive to phone companies is created, game over. Require service providers to affirmatively police the strangling of robocalling. Make the phone service providers who are presently happily selling access to you to robocallers liable for severe fines fitting the nuisance of their not diligently policing the robocall problem, and their bean counting departments will push their firms to straignten up and fly right.
