How do you want the developers to improve the filter? Be specific.

So it would not be censoring non-phones

Your example has the length of a phone number (123-456-7890). Try not to post anything 10 numbers long.

How would it detect what is a phone number and what is not?

5.28 billion people have smartphones - many people have one, two or even three phone numbers. So you would need to check through a database of billions of these to just post a comment with numbers.

Maybe don't censor 1000000000, 1234567890, 0123456789, 0000000001, all numbers only containing 0 and 1, and repeated numbers.
