Re: it's just more un-enforceable expense It's not necessarily about those who PLAY by the rules... you're right, though. Crooks, most crooks, don't play by the rules - this is why gun laws are about as effective as building the hoover dam out of straw.
What this does do is this:
Crooks - won't play by the laws/rules, but it gives you something to charge and punish them with IF/When they get caught.
Amateur cooks - it may sway them and make them think twice about actually doing this any more if they aren't smart enough to stay a step ahead of law enforcement. It could stop a certain level of this activity. Believe it or not, some of these people that were dialing out were very low tech, idiot, 1 bedroom apartment operations - they were just great at annoying millions of people.
The honest people - it just keeps the honest people that much more honest and gives those a sense of additional (false) security that all their woes will simply go away now. |
