Abstract
A method and system for automatically detecting and blocking robocalls. A robocall application on a server network device detects whether incoming calls from a first network device requesting a connection to a second network device are live voice calls are robocalls including natural synthesized voice data or artificial synthesized voice data. The robocall application on a server network device also detects whether incoming or outgoing calls from a third-party network device used to connect the first network device to the second network device are live voice calls or are robocalls including natural synthesized voice data or artificial synthesized voice data. Robocalls are automatically detected and blocked.
