Comments:
I do not want prerecorded calls coming to my home. The whole point of being on the do-not-call registry is to not have my day interrupted by sales pitches, by a living person or not. Telemarketing is the most intrusive type of advertising. A person can only avoid it via the do-not-call list, without resorting to extra expenditures (caller-ID) that I cannot afford, and which does not solve the problem as it still results in an interruption to screen each caller. It would be difficult to opt out of these calls, since they are prerecorded and do not contain a live person to make the request to.
