It’s not just you, SMS spam is a nightmare right now

Andy Boxall from DigitalTrends helps to explain what's been bugging me lately: SMS spammers are going nuts in the US at the moment. Besides reporting the spam to 7726, what can you do? I assume the mobile providers are chasing after the bad guys, and I also assume that its a very slow process. Eventually we'll hear about lawsuits. Maybe years from now. Somebody will regret this -- but until then, what? At this point I'm starting to wish I could just disable SMS completely on my phone.
