Comments:
Do not call means DO NOT CALL. I do not want pre-recorded messages nor any messages. If I say do not call, simply DON'T CALL ME. How can this be confusing? If I change my mind and want calls, I will ask the company to call me in writing or give them my consent. Implied consent is a bad idea. Companies like SBC/Pacbell are already abusing my do not call choices by claiming I did not opt out. I hate this whole opt-out attitude. I want to opt out of all future calls from all companies rather than have to contact each one via a 20 minute call where I prove who I am, why I do not want them to call, why I am authorized to make this choice, and why they reallly don't need to call me. Stop abusing me.
