I have my phone setting to block all unknown callers. I think this means they must be in my contacts list to get through. Yet when I am on my Mac or iPad, the calls still come through on those devices. How can I stop that?

This is still an issue. Is it a bug in the system? On my iPhone I have blocked unknown callers. But when I have my ipad or mac out, the call just comes through on those anyway. It never happens when all I have is my phone.
And blocking callers never works because they just use a different number next time.
Except it never happens when all I have is my phone . It only happens when I am using the Mac or the iPad.
Blocking. callers means nothing when they are spoofing the number.
Spam calls are getting through
