Robocallers will soon find it more difficult as the FCC RoboBlocks their attempts to target cell phones with SPAM calls. White Lists, Contacts and other tools will be deployed to ensure consumers only get the calls they want, and carriers now have the ability to enable these by default. Called a 'scourage' by FCC officials, robocalls make up the bulk of the cell phone calls to users and create a consumer fraud concern.
