United States has had this for a while now. Donotcall.gov register your home and cell to stop telemarketing as telemarketers were given cell info since 2004. They do expire so reregister is also recommended

I may be wrong, but I think they don't expire any more or the length has been extended.

I did hear that not all telemarketers are taking part so some will still get by.

I would alway try and keep those guys on the phone as long as possible with out buying anything. It would drive my wife crazy. Iwould talk about anything except what they were selling. No more house phone so no mire of those calls for me

I always do this when I am not busy.
I always try to get as much info about THEM as I can without divulging info about me.
The divorce was still amicable.
