How to block and filter calls

Spam calls can be annoying, especially when you continue to receive calls from the same number despite ignoring them repeatedly.

Luckily, smartphone manufacturers have been aware of these problems for years, and most modern smartphones offer users the ability to block certain numbers and caller IDs without the need for additional software.
 
Why is my comment being removed on the article when I point out that Truecaller sells your data and contact list?!?
 
I would be enormously surprised if it's not happening. And it won't just be Truecaller but their users that have access to your contact details including name and phone number.

“The team has been investigating the matter and has found that a very large percentage of the sample data does not match or is not Truecaller data,” the Swedish company said.
Yeah more FUD.
I am not registered on Truecaller but I use it all the time to check names associated with phone numbers.
Counter productive.
