For ones I *know* are robocalls (to my cell, from the same Nebraska 680 prefix) I just answer "Speak!" and it confuses them to hang up

We finally dumped our land line last month and upgraded to 100Mbs cable internet.

On my cell (mobile to Europeans) I still get Spam but I have tended to use the Google monitor function. Most calls that I do not know, just hang up now. I block and delete them.
My list of blocked numbers it pretty large.

My better half used to work at Microsoft - she would just tell them that they were full of B$. We had one guy call every 20 minutes for two days - they filled up my in-box until we called our phone company and figured out how to block the call.

Had about 10 spam calls yesterday, NoMoRobo blocked most of them. Probably election day robots/disinformation, because today there weren't any...

I only got a few of those. Most of my election spam came in the form of texts. I was beginning to agree with the idea of voting for the people that spammed me the least.
