Over the past few days, I’ve gotten more telemarketing calls than I have in a long time. Except none of them are technically telemarketing calls. And some of them start off by telling you that they’re not soliciting sales. Instead, they’re “taking a survey” that turns out to be an ad in question form, or they are “introducing themselves” by telling me about the services they can perform for my company.

Has anyone else noticed the Do Not Call list causing telemarketers to reposition themselves so that they can continue to achieve the mission stitched into their shoulder badges: “To Interrupt & Annoy”?
