do-no-connect international calls list. How many of us typically get international calls. Ive maybe had five in the past ten years.

Enforced by the U.N.? I guess you aren't aware that it's cheaper to call internationally than locally.

Why is that?

I suppose even you know that these international calls have to tie into the US telecommunications system at some point. Its not a direct broadcast system. Maybe you slow down the calls but there has to be a way to identify the destination of the calls and block any that are not authorized --IF THAT IS THE DESIRE OF THE LINE BEING CALLED.

Or another idea. We have call forwarding now. How about a system where any calls from a foreign source are authomatically forwarded to a special number where a high volume decibel horn knocks out their hearing?

Whats your beef and whats with the UN? Are you some fool kook who believes in black UN helicopters or what. Only an kook or an owner of a call center would defend telemarketers who dont obey the no call list.
