Ringless voice mails from telemarketers

.. and why does that allow them to spam you? Just because you can avoid it by changing numbers? You could make that same argument for a restraining order -- "Oh you can just move, so why would we legally protect you?". Absurd.

I think the problems with receiving a voicemail message and requiring a serious legal protection because you could be murdered or physically harmed by a specific person and not even close to the same order of magnitude.

Although I see where you are coming from, restraining orders aren't just for stalking/threats/abuse. It'a also for harassment, which I would definitely say telemarketers do.
