Regular phones lack spam protection so much that I'm considering completely disconnecting my number and going exclusively for web-based services that have better privacy controls.
I get an order of magnitude more recruiter spam and phishing via phone and SMS than legit communications.
@afilina the iPhone allows me to only get text messages from known contacts, and I think there’s a setting so private numbers don’t ring through, but I can’t keep that on because my doctor calls from a private number.
But even blocked numbers will end up in voicemail
(Edited because it will receive and hold unknown texts in a separate folder but I don’t get alerts about them.)
