Bah - these should be illegal. I've blocked around 60 numbers in the last two months. They are sounding more desperate each time. "You haven't yet sent cash to our team! We're the best team! Please vote for our team! Team other will destroy the planet! Do you know our team is the only team that has any qualifications whatsoever? Do your part! Vote team us! They are evil!" 13 more days.
I'll 3rd you. I had to unsubscribe (or whatever it is) to make it stop. It gets even worse during the debates or anytime someone's name is mentioned in the media. I'm all for campaigning but it's overkill when you are robo-texting several times per day. I ended up installing an app that lets me whitelist numbers so all other numbers don't get through. It was labor intensive but it's stopped the robo-calls/texts well.
I can't get too upset about it. It's obviously the only way to get the vote out during a pandemic. It should end within the next two weeks. The Russian spam, that will require legislation.
I hope you're right and we haven't all sold our souls to the devil somewhere. Then, it will REALLY take "an act of Congress" to get it to stop.
Over the last year and a half, I've been getting spam in Russian in my gmail account. I would tag it as spam, but then I would a couple of weeks later start getting meeting reminders, also in Russian, appearing on my Android phone. I did some research on it and there is some sort of Russian trolling exploiting a hole in Google which automatically adds any email invitations to your calendar. I had to go in manually to turn that feature off, but even with that, I still get some from time to time. They are relentless. I dare not click on anything for fear of download something. We are being attacked in cyberspace, we just don't realize it 99% of the time until our online identities are compromised.
Oh. Gotcha. I remember that happening to me once. All of a sudden I had a calendar reminder in Russian. That was a long time ago, though. Maybe two years.
Our opposition is literally Hitler, our nominee is literally the second coming of Christ. #election2020
Mr. Donald Trump Jr., wants to know why I refuse to send his father $15 to save life as we know it. Somewhere around 20 today. What sort of hellish list am I on? I haven't looked at porn in over 10 years.
