And you know, even before apps and smartphones, I'm pretty sure that you could notify the telephone company and block certain numbers from calling you. Phone networks are run off big computers called PBX's which have call routing tables that are very programmable. It's definitely possible.

Did you find a solution?

Take care,
Chad.
