not really, I request the name of the company the telemarketer works
for and the company they are gathering info or selling a product for,
often the telemarketer works  for a different company.  Than I
instrust them to remove me from their lists and not to call me again.
Failure to do so for at least one year is a violation of US law and
can result in servere penalties.
