Comments:
I don't think I'm alone in stating that telephone marketing is probably the most intrusive and annoying type of marketing currently in existence. If it were up to me, I'd ban it entirely, not relax its restrictions. Any rule that allows more opportunities for corporations to annoy the public in the name of profit is a bad rule in my opinion. And with the reduced costs of VoIP, telemarketers are in a position to misuse my phone line on an unprecendented scale. If exception after exception is made to the FTC's do-not-call rules, at what point is it worth having the rule in the first place? Sincerely, -Chris Woodfield
