That's why the STIR/SHAKEN attestation was setup for VOIP.

It basically adds a layer of trust and verification that the person placing the call owns the number that is being used in the caller ID. It helps prevent random calls from being transmitted from random numbers, one of the reasons it's almost impossible to prevent scam calls right now.

But it's not enforced system wide, and we don't have legislature that is making a point to deal with these scam and junk calls.
