This is all good and everything, but it should go further. Like, eliminating telemarketing completely. Make it completely illegal. I'm so sick of this crap. Do not call lists are a complete joke.

Is that the only solution? Criminalizing it? Why cant the telcos offer black/white lists similar to AdBlock for Firefox? Why do we continually call on the legal, political and regulatory institutions even when they've already shown they aren't capable of solving the problem?




Political freedom can only be preceded by economic freedom which is preceded by monetary freedom.
