What are the chances this will lead to online data privacy reform and corporate accountability for PII for all? or just…some?

    You say the solution isn’t very hard but what you are suggesting is basically just obfuscating phone numbers. Surely the actual solution is to just make spam calling illegal.

    Oh and just cut Indias data connection, because those guys are never going to fix their scam call centre problem because the government and police are corrupt.

      You could argue that cryptography is nothing but a type of obfuscation. I was trying to explain things so that the very average person could understand it.

      People don’t stop doing things just because you make it illegal. You even know this because you mentioned India. However people actually do stop when you make it nearly impossible.
