US Court Blocks Do Not Call List....

ARGHHH!!!

US Courts are now ruling that the FTC overstepped its authority in creating a Do Not Call list, which was supposed to go into effect next month.

This blows my mind. Why are they ignoring the plea from MILLIONS of people who signed up for this list?!?!?!?!?!

In similar news, two anti-spam companies shut down in response to the number up ddos attacks theyve been recieving.

What the fuck is going on?! Why is it legal to HARASS someone to buy your shit?!

This sucks, but the Do Not Call list should prevail in the end, never fear.

I still remember when telemarketing was still a quaint business approach. I was 11 years old, living in California and got a call from the Los Angeles Times asking if we wanted a subscription. I was like, "Whut?"

Remember when it was exciting to learn that "you've got mail" ? :LOL:

Now it's like: mad
