Supreme Court Hangs Up On Telemarketers, Too
from the don't-bother-us-again! dept
It looks like the Supreme Court has done the ultimate hang up on telemarketers by refusing to hear their case trying to get the "Do Not Call" list overturned. Maybe they shouldn't have submitted their case by calling up all the Justices around dinner time... In the meantime, despite predictions to the contrary by the telemarketing industry, the economy hasn't collapsed because of the list.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
