I have several real doors on my house. I bought them just like I bought my phone. I pay a fee for their continued use (property taxes) similar to my arrangement with the phone company for their services. If I were to hang a No Soliciting sign on it I would expect it to be obeyed. So far I've found no need to do this because my town requires door to door solicitors to get a permit. Yes, the town is acting as an agent on my behalf by regulating people who want to hawk crap on my front porch.

A local regulation to discourage strangers from commercial speech and physical trespassing is a lot more acceptable to me than federal regulations to regulate calls that may include political speech.
