alt Hacker News> gleeful stories of how they kept a phone spammer on a call for 45 minutes: "That'll teach 'em, ha ha!" Do these types of techniques really work? I’m not convinced.
It’s one of the best time investments I’ve ever made. They just don’t call me anymore.
I think they have two lists: the “do not call” list, and the “unprofitable to call” list. You want to be on the latter list.
From my experience, it's the opposite. The more you fuck with them the more they call. It's better not to answer. But I just can't help myself.
