You could pay the providers a monthly fee for a few numbers to be blocked, but the only software for iOS that could do it was a jailbreak. This is supposed to also support blocking text and FaceTime.

Or you could just download a proper call blocker app which is what I did on my S2

No doubt such software is blocked by the Apple AppStore overlords.

Android 4 has this feature by default amirite? That is, my S3 doesn't need an app. Couls be a Samnsung thing though, not sure.

My HTC phone running Android 4.0 does this as well without requiring any additional apps.

My S2 runs JB 4.1 and I still use
Calls Blacklist so I think it might be a feature for newer Android phones and not exclusive to the OS. Not sure though
Only thing missing right now is the ability to make a backup of your blacklist, otherwise it's a great app.

I've got an unrooted HTC Sensation which is basically the HTC equivalent of the S2. It could be that it's a feature HTC added through the Sense UI. I think the Nexus 4 has this functionality as well though, and it runs a stock Android ROM, so that leads me to believe it's a native Android feature.

Pretty sure this is a TouchWiz/Sense feature, as it doesn't exist on my stock Nexus 4.
