I think these are valid arguments, don't you?

No.

A hitchhiker is not entitled to force you to pick him up. Just because someone wants to talk to you doesn't mean that you have to listen. By using the phone to contact you, you have been forced to listen when you didn't want to.

You aren't forced --- you can get an answering machine to screen your calls, you can get caller ID and answer only the ones you want to answer --- you don't have to answer the "unavailables", or you can answer and hang up if it's not the call you wanted. I don't talk to telemarketers and I didn't need the government.
