Do Not Call Registry
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
We've been getting a lot of questions about the status of the Do Not Call Registry. Many subscribers have been curious about the outcome since the telemarketing industry has been claiming this Registry is unconstitutional.
Good news! Recently, the Supreme Court rejected the appeal by telemarketers claiming that the Do Not Call Registry violates their free speech rights.
This means consumers can continue to have their names on the government's nationwide Do Not Call Registry to stop many of the unwanted telemarketing calls they receive.
We've personally noticed a sharp drop in telemarketing calls since this law originally went into effect.
