Can a cell phone determine source of a VOIP call?
if you were to look at the source code and view the VOIP call info, could you see info on where the call originated from (as long as no VPN is used)?
on my iPhone, voip calls are generally displayed like so:
1234567890
as opposed to (which come from regular landlines):
(123) 456-7890
if the number is formatted correctly, i answer it and 99% of the time it's a legit call. anytime a number is not formatted correctly, i either answer and end the call right away (to avoid voicemail) or if i do send it to voicemail, it's 100% of the time some bullshit anyways.
can apple or google basically develop something into their respective OS' that stops VOIP calls from coming in if they're with a spoof'd number? there has to be some sort of data coming through the line to connect the call. should i be able to block any VOIP calls not originating in Canada/North America?
maybe even taking it 1 step further and if any of these calls over VOIP come in, it gets flagged as spam then it gets blocked at the source (not just blocking the number), info gets pushed to iCloud and in turn to all iPhone devices in real time?
