FTC robot caller challenge

[sillypainter]

What do you guys think of our proposal http://robocall.challenge.gov/submissions/13221-cello-mobile-robo-call-screener ?

[moko]

what about bank alerts etc.?

[elikay]

Waaaaaaaaaaay to complicated how will a dumb/drunk/tired person ever get through?

[sillypainter]

There is always an overwrite code that you can share with your bank, children etc.

This "screener" should of course be optional on your phone like voicemail.

Sounds like a really good idea if you don't want anybody to call you anymore.

Google voice already has a screening feature, I'm pretty sure most people have it disabled because it's annoying, don't see this being better

Smurf - this way you wont be getting a call at all from a robot. GV you will still get the call.

my point was that most people disable the screen feature on gv, for the same reason that they won't like this

Smurf - True, but I was just pointing out his advantage.
