Economics... The same reason spammers spam, there is money in the brute force direct marketing. SOMEONE is buying, other wise there literally would be no pay-off for spammer / telemarketers.

I assume they're referring to a service that the 3 credit companies offer, it's way to "freeze" your credit as a way to protect yourself if you think you may been a victim of identity theft. Also they may offer some monitoring to go along with this, of course this is normally a fee based service.

I'm surprised that both Apple and the $2500 remote manufacturers don't have this feature that Alpine does:
"PulseTouch Display It Touches Back! With Alpine's exclusive PulseTouch(TM) technology, the screen gives off pulses, vibrations, and sounds when touched. The system emits vibrations and pressures that simulate what it feels like when you push a real button. You get a different feel when tapping a button, holding down a button, or moving a slider. This smart menu layout, together with its tactile response, ensures that you can navigate quickly and easily through music lists and menus. "
The city I live in has mandatory / free recycling AND a machine that sorts the items at the depot center. However they don't take all plastics, or plastic bags.
