The sub-headline of the article claims there is no purpose for “assault weapons” other than killing people.
each designed with a single purpose — to kill lots of people as fast as possible
Is this article trying to tell me I’m using mine wrong? Because I use mine only for things that don’t involve killing people.
I think it’s too late for this to be useful. Number spoofing is ultra-common these days and most of the unwanted calls I receive are from spoofed numbers that appear to come from local areas.
If we start blocking the spoofed numbers then eventually we’ll just be blocking every possible combination of digits that can exist.
What we really need first is better detection and blocking of calls using spoofed numbers.
