Yah, I already do something similar to that.  I'm the zapateller
sort.   I'd still like to see that in the gui... including
zapatellering any unwanted callers.  Oh, and thanks for correcting my
DID to CID.  My bad.

Ah, so you actually want to kill calls based on CID source and not DID
destination...  yeah that's a little different.  The GUI doesn't
currently have a way to filter calls by CID.  I think maybe the reason
nobody has tackled this is because CID is so unreliable and so easily
blocked.

I'd tell you to put your numbers on that new national do not call list
that the Canadian government is now offering, but I guess that hasn't
turned out so well ;-)

You can always hand edit extensions.conf.  Here would be one way to
filter out specific calls:

[incoming-context]
exten => s,1,GotoIf($["${CALLERID(num)}" = "2223334444"]?telemarketer)
exten => s,n,GotoIf($["${CALLERID(num)}" = "3334445555"]?telemarketer)
etc...


And if you're feeling particularly sadistic:
