A record 54 billion spam calls flooded consumers’ smart phones in 2019.

With bipartisan support, Congress passed its first major anti-robocall legislation in decades. The legislation offers more protections for consumers and more powers for law enforcement. Still, some experts worry the law does not go far enough.

Today on All Sides with Ann Fisher: the fight against robocalls.  

Guests:

  • Octavio Blanco, tech reporter, Consumer Reports
  • Steve Lohr, reporter, The New York Times
  • Russell Holly, contributing editor, Android.com
