      Because there are legitimate reasons for some robo calls. Appointment reminders and confirmations, school weather closure announcements, two-factor login verification, etc.

        You can do all this things without robo calls. There are no robo calls in Germany for example.

          I thought I lived in a pretty backwards part of Germany but your corner must be extremely off the grid!

          To just name one example in Germany: Verification via robo call in WhatsApp.

            Oh, I genuinely didn’t know there are robo calls in Germany, never encountered them - always used sms or other kinds of verification. My bad.
