Stop political text messages

Political text messages can be reduced with a layered approach: opt out of legitimate lists, block obvious repeat senders, avoid suspicious links, and filter recurring campaign-message patterns.

Why one method is not enough

Replying STOP may handle one sender. Blocking may handle one number. Filtering helps when the same political pattern arrives from new senders during election season.
