“…But apparently the phone companies don’t care what their account holders are being subjected to..”
Of course not!
It’s the same reason that the Post Office fills your mailbox with so much junk mail every day.
-It’s their #1 source of revenue; and THAT’S all that matters.
I have to drive to my mailbox. Mail goes from my mailbox to my outside trash can. Never even makes it to the house. 96 percent is garbage. Never even read. What a waste. I visit it maybe every 10 days.
