This is my number 2 best selling stock illustration this year!
I guess between the rise of AI and annoying telemarketing calls, the topic of 'robocalls' gets a lot of mileage.

My previous specialty pharmacy would call to get my botox injections approved and the call would last less then a minute.

Humana's pharmacy robocalls me and when I return it it's a 10 minute drawn-out process.

Why do they have to make this shit unnecessarily difficult?

*Don’t answer calls from unknown # s*‼️

If you answer & hear a recorded message, hang up immediately‼️

*NEVER* press any # s during a robocall, *even if it claims to remove you from their list*‼️

Don’t respond to ❓s, especially 1s asking you to say "yes."

The USA should make spam calls and texts illegal again. We had a brief, glorious moment without robocalls on cell phones, and then Donald Trump and the Republican Party destroyed it for the benefit of the Epstein Capitalist class.

Conversely, if you're an incumbent Democrat candidate who really, really wants AI/tech money some day, go all-in now and barrage your constituents with AI robocalls, cack up your website with ai enhancements and chats (you want to submit feedback great,AI Alfred can help!) and so on. Curry AI favor.

"Gee, I'd love more spammy robocalls" said no one ever. If you're horrified by the thought of even more unwanted calls to your phone, tell the FCC!
Tell the FCC to maintain the integrity of the U.S. telephone system – and the election process – and reject Club for Growth’s attempt to unleash unwanted, AI-voiced political robocalls. #EndRobocalls #ProtectConsumers #AI www.nclc.org/stop-efforts...

Open letter to the candidates running for Hull, 2026
It is election time again, and I have to decide who to vote for at the provincial level. Yipee? And once again I am faced with the lack of enthusiasm the candidates have for campaigning in my area.…

That means attack ads. Mail. Robocalls. A cannon of GOP and dark money cash aimed straight at Hampton Roads. 💥

The only way to fight back against a machine like that is to build an army of grassroots donors who refuse to let this country fall to MAGA extremism. That's you.
