By the way, AT&T mobile has a similar feature that automatically blocks numbers if the have been reported as spam. The number won't even ring on your phone.

This will not work for telemarketers who use private numbers, spoofed numbers, or keep changing numbers. That is the problem the Government regulators can fix by simply requiring phone providers, like Verizon, to adjust their equipment to prohibit any changes to the basic caller ID system. So, if you have a number assigned by a phone provider, your name and number will always show up on the caller ID system. No hiding behind fake names and numbers. You should have a right to know who is calling you.
