Summary
- Google Messages is rolling out an Unsubscribe button to combat spam.
- Pressing the button sends a ‘STOP’ message from the user to the sender, blocking non-essential texts.
- The Unsubscribe button is available for RCS for business messages and texts from short codes.
I use an app called SpamBlocker from fdroid. It supports regex filters and blocking non-contacts and is super comprehensive in this regard.
I’ll check it out, thank you. Sounds simpler than changing my number after 20 years.
Same. It stopped most of my spam.
I’ve been using Blacklist for probably 10 years, recently switched to SpamBlocker. Wow, what a complex and flexible app.
I get no messages or calls I don’t want.
