As I am writing this, Kim Komando just came on the radio complaining about robo calls.

Now, for junk mail, I take it all and stuff it in the postage-paid return envelope after removing my name and any other identifiers, and I mail it back to them. Cost them postage both ways with nothing in return.

I wonder if there are robo calls in Iran? North Korea?
I stopped getting term life insurance junk mail by wrapping up several pounds of drapery weights and mailing them to the sender using their postage paid cards attached to the heavy package.
