A. Phone Spam Reporting 2026: Who Can Use It

This content applies specifically to South Korea.

You can now report voice spam through A. Phone in South Korea, with access for SK Telecom subscribers regardless of device type and for other carriers' subscribers on Android. According to KISA, the Korea Internet & Security Agency, the feature became available on September 30, 2026.

Report a call from the calling app

The integration adds reporting from a carrier's phone app to the existing route in Samsung devices' default phone app. Select a call in recent history, review its recording, then choose the option to report spam and block. No separate written description is needed, saving the work of explaining the call again.

The report sends the recording, caller's number and other information to KISA. Check the reporting screen for the complete list and the privacy notice for how long the information is kept.

Check the A. Phone guide before submitting

In the original article on Injoys, you will find a carrier and device comparison, the iPhone menu location and a breakdown of the information submitted. Its separation of reporting, number ratings and AI warnings helps clarify which action actually sends information to KISA.

A short check after a suspicious call

If you see an AI warning, treat it as an alert rather than confirmation of a submitted report. Use this check before assuming the agency has received anything:

  • Review the call recording before submitting.
  • Check which information the reporting screen says will be sent.
  • Check report completion separately from AI warnings or Safe Call number ratings.

Some AI detection runs on the device, but a KISA report transmits the recording. These are separate processes.

Check support for the subscription line

For SK Telecom iPhone users, look in the A. app's phone feature. Other carriers' iPhone subscribers are outside this announcement's scope.

If you use a budget mobile operator, also called an MVNO, ask the app's customer support whether the specific line is supported. Using SK Telecom's network alone does not establish eligibility. Integration into KT and LG Uplus AI calling apps is planned, with no specific start date announced.

What else to check

Does an unfamiliar number count as illegal spam?

No. An unknown number alone does not establish illegal spam. KISA's guidance concerns commercial advertising messages; illegality depends on a violation of the relevant rules.

Can a call without a recording be reported?

The announcement does not specify whether this app route accepts calls without recordings. Consult KISA's separate reporting guide.

Select the call in recent history and review its recording before deciding whether to submit a report.

Bitcoin Rally Claims Reviewed: U.S. Liquidity, Stablecoins, Reserves and Mining

Image
If you are weighing claims that $3 trillion to $6 trillion of U.S. liquidity, a government Bitcoin reserve, or 24-hour stablecoin payments will trigger a Bitcoin rally, you need to separate policy changes from price predictions. The original article on Injoys reviews each claim and shows you where the evidence is strong, incomplete, or overstated. Why easier bank rules are not money printing You first get a clear explanation of the supplementary leverage ratio, or SLR. This rule requires large banks to maintain core capital relative to their total leverage exposure, which can include U.S. Treasuries and central-bank reserves. Recent easing may give banks more capacity to intermediate Treasuries and participate in repo markets. However, you should not treat that capacity as actual lending, asset purchases, or quantitative easing. QE involves Federal Reserve asset purchases and expansion of its balance sheet. The article therefore finds insufficient evidence that SLR reform will auto...

Daedong Law 1651: Chungcheong Reform and Kim Yuk's Role

Image
If you are checking Chungcheong's tax rate in 1651, the answer is 10 du of rice annually per 1 gyeol of land, not the later rate of 12 du. The Hoseo Daedong Law collected 5 du in spring and 5 du in autumn. Kim Yuk's repeated proposals helped secure implementation in Chungcheong first. What changed in the tribute burden Instead of obtaining assigned tribute goods, obligations were assessed by land measured in gyeol. Revenue covered local expenses before the remainder went to the central government. This explains why the reform concerned both tax collection and spending: replacing tribute goods alone would not resolve additional collections for local costs.
