I am interested. Sounds like classic reddit.

There are active KKK chapters in NC. There is also a Proud Boys presence here (they're known to wear masks).

I wonder, will they be exempt from this? (I know the answer, of course. Republicans will protect their own.)

I have no clue why you're being downvoted so much. I understood exactly what you were trying to convey and I agree with you.

I'm afraid the baby thinks people can't change.

I've had at least one dream where I used my phone to message a friend something (which is something I do every day). I can't recall any other specific times, but I feel like I've seen it a few times.

Don't think I've seen my computer though.

It's rare, but as a long-haired (cis) male, someone might refer to me as ma'am or miss. It hasn't happened since I worked retail 7 or 8 years ago.

Admittedly, I don't have many trans folks in my life to refer to. If I see someone and their gender is ambiguous, I default to they/them pronouns. I don't think I've ever offended anyone from misgendering them. I try to respect people and their identities. Hell, I don't even like misgendering dogs 😅

In middle school, I had an incident where a kid a grade above me (he was held back, so he should've been a high schooler by this point and was HUGE) began to mess with me, unprompted, at the end of the day.

He stepped on my shoes as we walked, poked me, called me names, etc. When I turned around and called him a bitch and kept walking, he sucker punched me and ran. It was so bad I ended up in the emergency room with stitches.

Anyways, my parents were called and they threatened legal action. The school begged them not to, because they were "going to take care of it, we promise." Once we found out he was only suspended for a week, my parents got all the info they needed to press charges for assault. He ended up in juvie.

Looking back, it's a shame he ended up "in the system," but that's what he gets for being a bitch. Lol

I've seen it now. I wish I hadn't...

More specifically, are we seeing companies breached due to their (obvious?) security flaws, hackers getting better at what they do, or a combination of both?

What is the future of security for these large companies that we put our trust into that our data is safe?

(Picture alt text: a screenshot of my phone's call log, with numbers redacted (just in case). The phone numbers (except for one) are all spam calls)

I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this, but I am at my limit with these.

Constantly throughout the day I get spam call after spam call. I constantly report them to Google (I've got a Pixel 5, if it matters), yet nothing changes. This has been happening for months.

These calls will also leave the exact same, completely silent, 4-second voicemails. I will block and report spam, but you know how it is. There's no way to turn voice mail notifications off, and I wouldn't necessarily want to, because I know I'd miss something genuine or important.

What do I do? Is there anything I can do, beyond changing numbers? Even then, I'm sure a new number would exist in some database somewhere and be victim to more spam calls. This is heinous.

Thanks for reading. I'm just so frustrated.

Edit: this got a lot more attention than I anticipated. I appreciate the suggestions for different spam blockers and settings! It's also nice knowing I'm not alone. Hopefully, at least in the US, we'll get some real legislation eventually that will kill these spam calls once and for all.
