Ban automated phone calls to land lines

Petition Details

Are you sick of answering your phone only to find it's a recorded message even though your number is ex directory? Does anyone actually listen to them?

Additional Information

What about disabled and elderly people that struggle to reach the phone to find it is an unsolicited prerecorded sales pitch? These calls are an invasion of privacy and a nuisance and need to be stopped by law.
