I can see what Apple is trying to do, but I doubt that the robo-callers or scammers are conducting their scams from their iPhones.
What I think would be more helpful would be a button on the RECEIVER'S end of things called "report this number" where people can report scammers and spam callers to Apple. Apple could then use that info to flag incoming calls from those types of numbers as "Suspected spam. Take call anyway?" This way it would not matter whether the caller was using iPhone or a robo-call machine, it would help Apple users who are getting incoming calls from those numbers.

That’s a solid idea, with formidable enemies. The FCC has broad powers to protect people against robocalls. It’s just that like the rest of the Trump operation, they’re run by the gangsters they’re supposed to be protecting us from. Your tax dollars at work.
