I love one new feature on my phone: “Report and Delete Junk”. I do not know if it is a feature of the OS alone or something from my carrier.
Especially on election day where my phone is beeping every hour with yet another political spam message coming from a phone number (not a short code). Despite the inclusion of instructions on how to opt out by replying with STOP, I assume these are all nefarious actors and I don’t want to feed them.
I assume there some exemption in my carrier’s spam policy for political spam. Tobi dialects are illegal now except for politicians— how convenient to exempt themselves. When I mash the button, it probably doesn’t actually do anything but delete the message. The placebo effect makes me feel a little better.
