However, it is not quite as effective as it was, perhaps because the volume of new phone numbers created by robocallers may be increasing faster than Nomorobo can keep up with them. This very recent Globe article discusses robocaller blocking efforts and Nomorobo specifically. https://www.bostonglobe.com/business/2019/02/21/license-kill-robocalls-the-p... _**************************_._,_.___ ._, I set up nomorobo for my parents, who have a Verizon landline, and it was free.
