It's unbelievable how people use all this "marketing strategies" that
annoy people far away the limit. Fortunately, nobody here in Colombia is
doing such a thing (as least on cell phones, because on landlines I've
heard cases of calls about winning a car to con people), I would be very
angry to receive a call with this type of ugly advertising. I usually
accept to receive only call per month, reminding my pendant cell phone
bill, and I have enough with all the SMS garbage (sometimes I get three
on a day) that I receive from my cell phone operator.
If this type of calls problem keeps growing, we would need to maintain
an asterisk at home just to block them.

Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] 400 calls at g711 how much cpu power
My only comment is that I am having moral issues with assisting anyone
that is planning to call one million phone numbers to play a message and
hang up. Doesn't sound like an "opt-in" kind of campaign to me. When
such a thing happens to me on my home phone I get extremely angry.

We are planning to run an outbound only campaign. A 20-second voice
message
will be played to callers and our dialer on machine1 will send to
machine2-asterisk (1.4) instructions to dial 400 calls, play the message
and
hang up. This will be done for about 1 million phones.
The asterisk box will communicate via SIP to a voice carrier. the voice
carrier will then place the calls on pstn. The codec will be g711. So we
will never do any transcoding.
I have been calculating the CPU power required to do the calls and in
previous posting the usual calculation is about 40MHZ per leg when no
transcoding is involved.
So if we use the 40MHZ rule, we are talking about 40*400=16000MHZ or
1.6Ghz.
