When I did used to answer my phone, I'd tell the callers I didn't want them calling, and it seemed to have no effect, so again, I'm leery about giving my info for free to every telemarketing firm in the country.

I have been on it since it's inception first on the state level and then on the federal level.
I even didn't register a new phone when we moved, and remembered to do so a few months later. Once registered the telemarketing calls diminished to ZERO.
Now once in a while I get gallup polls and local pollings calling. I do not know how they operate, but if I have time to answer their questions I will to help represent my opinion which should also be a percentage of people out there as well.
