Need A Number? Nope, Just An Email Address

0 views

It sounds either useful, creepy, or bound for abuse: Jangl.com has set off a service that allows people to call anybody with a known email address.

The benefit is, obviously, that Jangl claims they can put you in touch with anybody in the world for free. The target of your call doesn't have to accept, and can block calls.


While that sounds well and good, it seems ripe for spammers, telemarketers, and stalkers – even if the receiver can block callers. It doesn't seem like it would be all that hard to set up new accounts to get around that.
