Most people have experienced it, that annoying ring of the phone just as dinner goes on the table. When you answer, you find it is not a call from a friend or family member, or even from work. It's someone calling to sell you something -- a telemarketer. .
Telemarketing. Ah yes, the friendly and "sociable" way of selling items to you over the phone that you will never need or use while wasting your time and completely invading your privacy. They call multiple times a day, and sometimes when you answer the phone, no one is even there, because of their autodialers that call up to four random people simultaneously and only connect with the person who answers the phone fastest, causing hang up calls to the others. Not only that, their numbers are blocked on your Caller-ID service so you cannot even tell who is calling before you pick up the phone. Sound like something that if were stopped would make your life go a little smoother?.
Telemarketers claim that most people actually want to receive their annoying calls. This is the lie that they keep telling the politicians that control the laws under which they must operate. Big industries lie to Congress all the time. Remember when the cigarette companies told Congress under oath that "Nicotine is not addictive." However, if most people really do want to receive telemarketing calls, why does the telemarketing industry object to sending the word "TELEMARKETER" as the name on your Caller-ID box?.

In that case, there isn't much that you can do to stop them.
