You know what?
When enough people get irritated by a particular behavior
that some other people may consider is within their "rights",
then they expect and even insist that laws be written.

When enough people got irritated by cigarette smoke,
they insisted on laws that "limited" the "rights" of smokers.

Enough people got irritated by telemarketers, so
they insisted on laws that "limited" the "rights" of telemarketers.

My phone only rings now when it is family or friends
that is the way I like it and the way that I want it to be.
And I am in the majority.
So get used to it.
The battle is over.
And your side lost.

Do gunshots irritate you? My practice might irritate you if you lived next to me. You could pass a law restricting my practice to the range. Then maybe a few more to limit ranges to out-of-the-way places.

Your insistence on not having telemarketers is even more laughable considering you signed up to receive their calls. You pay money to get their calls! LOL!
