Well, depends. For example, Singapore's numbers are 'non-geographic' in that sense. But Singapore itself is small enough.

I mean non-geographic within the country. As far as I know, the US practice of assigning mobile numbers to 'area codes' is unique.

Yes. I was broadly agreeing with you.

Just saying that some countries are small enough that it's essentially the same.

When I have a spammer/scammer on the phone (and I actually picked up), I usually just put my phone on mute and stop talking to them. They waste a bit more time that way before they hang up (without more effort from me).

Side anecdote, I was taking to some sales people and they mentioned this concept of "ringless voicemails" ugh idk why people have no shame.

I solve that problem by just not having any voicemail box.
