Telemarketers Sue Over "Do Not Call" List

Joey Patterson writes "CNN reports that 'Telemarketers expanded their legal challenge to the government's do-not-call list, suing a second federal agency over the call-blocking service for consumers that the industry says will devastate business and cost as many as two million jobs.'"

  1. I honestly don't see why telemarketers hate this.. by linuxrunner · · Score: 2, Redundant

    Honestly think about it:

    Those of us who do not like telemarketers, will not talk to them, and would NEVER buy anything from them are SIGNING UP for the list....

    Those who like to buy stuff and chat, WILL NOT sign up for the list. Basically those of us who sign up are saving the telemarketers valuable time, by NOT wasting their time.

    Get it???

    I honestly don't see what the problem is... it's really a win-win situation for both.

    I mean.. did anyone really stop to think about it? It's not like we're all automatically signed up.. you have to choose, to not get calls.
