Is it worth registering my number with the federal government (which presumably already has access to my information) to avoid spam calls? Does it work? Is there a downside?

    The registry only works for legitimate companies that are playing by the rules. That is to say that it does jack shit, at least for me

    I get dozens of spam calls and texts a day, mostly political in nature but with some good loan scams mixed in for variety.
