T-Mobile to Help Get Rid of Stalkers

[Chuong Nguyen]

TMoNews is reporting that T-Mobile may soon release a system that blocks unwanted SMS, MMS, Email, and IMs from unwanted callers on a per number basis. Essentially, you could be blocking the unwanted text/picture messages, emails, and instant messages from the pesky ex-boyfriend or girlfriend.

Users can go into a retail store or call customer service to set up the numbers they wish to block. Hopefully, an internet management system will also be setup to manage the "blacklist" of callers and spammers.

This is welcomed news as those without a messaging plan or bundle are charged for incoming messages, even those that are unsolicited. Hopefully this will be brought to more carriers.
