Corporate America can move mountains when fines cut into profit margins. I am not kidding when I say this would be fixed immediately.
You realize the telcos themselves know exactly where the spam calls are coming from, right? You can be damn sure that functionality was a top priority from day 1 because (just like for all subscribers) they need to know the spammers' usage in order to bill them for it.
They just don't bother passing that information along to end users or law enforcement because nobody's forcing them to.
