Re: controversial or unsavory-- how about LEGAL / NORMAL

said by Placebo See Profile :

Seriously? Are you really feigning outrage here?

So what if it's legal. That doesn't mean that everyone feels it's morally acceptable.

Are you telling me that Verizon should be forced to give ANY organization access to its network?
Absolutely. Should they ban me from calling you if I know you just because I am calling from a t-mobile or us cellular cell phone? a land line? a voip provider?

In either case, for bulk text messaging, rules are already laid out:

Express Prior Authorization

Under the FCC’s rules, commercial e-mail messages may only be sent to your wireless device via the Internet if you have provided your “express prior authorization.” Commercial e-mail senders may request that you provide this authorization orally or in writing (e-mail or letter). They must tell you the name of the entity that will be sending the messages and, if different, the name of the entity advertising products or services. All commercial e-mail messages sent to you after you’ve given your authorization must allow you to revoke your authorization, or “opt out” of receiving future messages. You must be allowed to opt out the same way you “opted in,” including by dialing a short code. Senders have 10 days to honor requests to opt out.

FWIW

I have refrained from calling people on this forum names, while I might disagree with a particular viewpoint I at no time resorted to name calling such as you have. As adults (I might be making a large leap of fate here) we should be able to debate and discuss the issues without trying to denigrate each other. If you feel that I am posting off topic the simple and expedient thing to do is just move on and skip those posts. Thank you for your cooperation. Oh and if you wish to debate the issues first learn what the issues are, do some research, name calling is the first hint you lack knowledge about the subject matter.

Thank you

To: Zachary1,

Ever the clever one aren't we?

To whom are you referring in your post in reference to "Dr. Laura apologist"? I searched back through the posts and was unable to find any references to Dr. Laura I know I never made mention of her, I do not listen to her nor do I take advice from her. Once again we have an individual who is seemingly unable to debate the issues in an adult manner. I might be on opposite sides of the fence from you on this issue but I have not lowered myself to name calling. If you do not like what I said say so and why in an adult manner. I can only conclude you are a teenager lacking knowledge and an understanding of the issues please try and do some research prior to posting such clever informative and enlightening post. Thank you and have a great day
