🐛 Bug squashed: When blocking unknown SMS notifications, we were accidentally dismissing ALL text notifications.
Turns out Android groups notifications together, canceling the "group summary" wipes out the whole stack.

128 days since our last Google Play update has been pending review. 4 months is crazy. Last inbound DM from @GooglePlay was nice, but unfortunately this is also out of their hands as our case's being handled by an "internal specialist team".

Even @Google says traditional security is failing. At a recent conference, their Threat Intel lead declared: "The goal has to be disruption, not just intel sharing."
Why? Because AI-powered threats are evolving faster than our defenses. #CyberSecurity #Disruption #AI

Google sees it at scale: AI creating deepfakes so good, a finance worker lost $25 MILLION after a video call with a fake CFO. AI is writing malware & finding zero-days automatically.
Prevention based on "spotting the signs" is DEAD. #Deepfake #ScamAlert

If you live in Louisiana, you get 3x more spam calls than a Californian (339/year vs 123/year).
The robocall geo tax: Scammers hit the Southeast due to weaker state laws & older carrier infra.
Your ZIP code shouldn't determine your peace. Our economic filter works everywhere!
Why did Upwork start charging freelancers to apply for jobs?
To kill spam. And it worked.
When it's free, spammers flood the zone. When it costs $2/application, they vanish. It's simple economics.
Your phone has the same problem. Scams are free to send.

#KarmaCall makes unknown callers pay a refundable deposit. Legitimate calls are still free. Scammers go broke.

90 days since our last Google Play update has been pending review. Pretty wild.
Day 57 since waiting. If patience is a virtue, we must be world champs. Any other #GooglePlay developers have app updates that have gone this long?
We're aware of a sign-up issue with Cameroon numbers - Please stand by while we investigate / fix the issue. Sorry for the experience to our CM fam!

Hot take: The best blockchain use case isn't DeFi or NFTs.
It's making unknown senders stake a bit of refundable money before their calls / texts / DMs reach you.
@nano's feeless, instant transactions make this possible at scale. Here's how 🧵👇

It's not just you. That Techdirt article that went viral on Reddit is right: America is drowning in scam calls—4.1 billion this year alone.
Why? The government is gutting consumer protection while big carriers profit from the spam traffic.

When the system fails, you don't have to be a victim.
The solution isn't waiting for politicians. It's economic. #KarmaCall forces scammers to pay a deposit to contact you. If it's a scam, YOU get paid.
Don't wait for the FCC. Protect yourself now.
