      the do not call registry is only respected by legitimate telemarketers, which are not responsible for the vast majority of spam calls

        That’s a valid point, but one cannot say that it “literally never worked” because it does.

        Most of my spam was “legitimate” telemarketers, because I only give my phone to legitimate businesses, never provided it for some surveys and other crap that requests it. Also when I get a call that I don’t recognize I just let it go to voice mail.
