It works, and your logic is laughable. "It doesn't work because it requires effort to enforce". I guess we don't have a working law in the country then.. (lets not get into that, okay?)

People who say it doesn't work, largely don't understand how it is supposed to work. Non-profits and survey's CAN still contact you. Business's that you've done business with CAN still contact you. All it's supposed to do is protect you from random spam calls. Which it does very well. I never get these any more.
Quite frankly don't see what's so laughable.....My Ad-Blocker works by not showing me ads or pop-ups or pop-unders right? I'm not copying URL threads and having to manually plug them into the software and Blacklist/Whitelist. I don't have to track down the marketeers behind the POP-UP or Banner Ads and write letters and sue them....the Ads just don't show up. A do-not-call number, I would assume, shouldn't have telemarketers or who ever calling that line if it's a protected number...it should already be on a so-called list...published to the marketers as numbers they OUGHT-NOT-CALL! and yet they do.... so who's logic is laughable?

You're blocking ALL Ads. It's very easy to block ALL calls. Email would be a better {cringe} analogy. If you're on the do-not-call list and a business associate wants to call you from work, should his company get in trouble because he does?
