When someone calls me, I get the option to "screen call". I've never noticed it until now, but just Googled it and found it what it does.
The caller gets an automated message, saying, "The person you are calling is using a screening service from Google. They will receive a transcript of this call. Go ahead and say why you are calling"
Then the person says what they want, and you decide whether to answer.
It sounds pretty useful for screening out spam, but, otherwise it feels a bit weird to just reject someone's call because you don't want to talk to them.
It's not massively different from not answering and just listening to their voicemail, I suppose.
So, do you/have you used it?
