Comments:

I have greatly enjoyed the peace and tranquility in my life of being free from telemarketing calls since I placed myself on the Do-Not-Call list. All of these call were a tremendous annoyance and frustration for me. These calls advertise to me without my permission and if they have more rights from the government, I will have no way to escape them. Paying for a phone service is exactly equivalent to renting an apartment. It is something which I am paying for my own private use. No third party is allowed to post advertisements on the inside of an apartment, so why should telemarketers be allowed to advertise on my private phone line? To allow them to do so is absolutely illogical. Please give them no rights to do anything at all. They frustrate all of us as a nation. It is a violation of our privacy. Thank You
