Actually I'd quite like it if my government could block foreign phone calls that attempt to spoof local numbers.

If only as a way of stopping foreign criminal gangs from scamming the vulnerable.

The main reason this can't happen is because of international agreements that were made long before the internet age or this type of crime became a thing.

It's amusing how on another thread the general consensus may be a celebration of Let's Encrypt while over here I seem to come off as crazy (and thus deserving of downvotes simply for saying "not everyone agrees with you").

You are probably receiving downvotes because you're making a non sequitur. The web is, unlike phonelines, encrypted. At best it's a strawman or just a false equivalence.

Interesting! I see communication as communication, and the medium as completely separate. Does it really matter that much if I communicate an idea to another mind using squiggles on paper, dots on a screen, or recordings of sound waves?
