Also,
What *is* a telemarketer?
I have the ACLU on my blacklist, i'm a big contributor to the ACLU
and instead of being happy, they take this as a sign that they should
bleed me dry further (the same for lots of political causes).
What occurs to me here is something on the order of dnsbls and how
they are used for spam in modern well-setup dnsbls.
A query to these dnsbls will return a specific result class (of
course, since this is a dnsbl it's still a horrible hack but i'm
advocating the concept not the design).
For example, zen.spamhaus.org (look at http://www.spamhaus.org/faq/
answers.lasso?section=DNSBL%20Technical#200), returns A records based
on why that entry is in the database, so I can choose to use only the
small manually maintained SBL list, or the XBL list, or just PBL, or
some combination of these!
Good design (bad implementation though, dns wasn't designed for this :/)
Why not have the same thing in a database of telephone numbers?
Classify numbers depending on who is calling, categories for all the
different exceptions in the do-not-call laws for example...
This definitely has to be something centralized though, a peer-to-
peer system is indeed begging for abuse.

As good of an idea as that sounds, it would certainly need to be
moderated in one form or another. It's just begging for abuse to allow
any user to arbitrary insert numbers on the PSTN deeming them as
blacklists. Sort of a spamhaus for telephony services ..

How about a mysql sync - shared module that we could collectively

periodically...to track exactly this....share our telemarker
numbers....
Would want 1. number, 2. label of who it is... 3. last hit on it...
We'd each track our own...maybe an enhancement to the blacklist
module...
Use a peer to peer model...not unlike dundi...catch refreshes out
of it
Thoughts, commments, etc...

Manually,
I'm just designating some people as telemarketers (using some MySQL +
AGI to evaluate and drop the call) I would like to have a little fun.

What logic are you using to determine if the caller is indeed a

Hi,
I have some annoying telemarketer calling me on a recurring basis,
but I'd like to discourage them a bit and have some fun.
I found this:
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+AEL+Telemarketer
+Torture
but the link to download the sound files is dead (wyoming.e-
tools.com is NXDOMAIN).
Anyone have a copy of these?
