Autodialing

/ˌɔːtoʊˈdaɪəlɪŋ/ verb

Definition

The process of automatically dialing phone numbers using a machine or computer program without requiring a person to manually enter each number.

Etymology

Present participle of autodial, combining auto- (self) + dial (to call a phone number). The term emerged as a natural extension of telephone automation technology in the late 20th century.

Kelly Says

Autodialing technology accidentally helped create modern cybersecurity concerns—as machines could dial thousands of numbers per hour, it became both a legitimate business tool and a vector for scams, leading to the rise of call-screening technology.
