I don't have a phone affected by robocalls. But I went to the link and looked at the provided list, which is quite large, and saw both Verizon traditional landline and Verizon FiOS so I clicked that one, put in my email address and got this message:

Good News! At least one of your carriers support Nomorobo.
Please check your email for a link to complete the signup process.
If you don't receive it soon, please check your spam folder.
If you have any other questions or comments, please send an email to info@nomorobo.com

Within minutes I received an email (sure enough, in my spam folder) which welcomed me and gave a link to sign up. I didn't click it since I don't actually have a phone number to put in.

Since this is a pretty new thing I'm sure there will be some kinks to be worked out, but hopefully enough people will try it out to get it all up and running and soon many fewer meals and naps will be ruined by some unwelcome call.
