Isn&#x27;t Twilio a large source of spam from long numbers? I think this is less cut and dry than Twilio makes it out to be. Hopping on the Net Neutrality bandwagon when this doesn&#x27;t have anything to do with Net Neutrality makes Twilio seem slimy here.<p>If you want to send messages in bulk, the process is, get a short code, pass carrier testing, then your messages are received. Twilio needs to implement something like complaint feedback, similar to what AWS does for email. If someone reports a message back to code 7726 (SPAM), there&#x27;s no way to know that. Twilio is big enough that they could work with carriers instead of demanding carriers open the gates to any&#x2F;every message.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.cloudmark.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;02&#x2F;13&#x2F;sms-phishers-exploit-twilio-and-owly-to-steal-mobile-account-logins&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;blog.cloudmark.com&#x2F;2014&#x2F;02&#x2F;13&#x2F;sms-phishers-exploit-t...</a>
