SO, YES, ROBOCALLS. They are a big issue. You probably get them multiple times a week, or multiple times a day. Sometimes you’re waiting for an important call, only to get an automated voice offering you a new yacht. Or you miss an important call, because you thought it might be the yacht bros again. It’s a maddening cycle. And though the total volume of robocalls in the US is down a bit from its all-time high in March, according to call blocking service YouMail, that still amounted to 4.7 billion robocalls in May.
