I don’t know. If you give me a soda, that soda becomes mine to do what I want. I can pour it on the ground, drink it, or give it to someone else. I feel the same way about ways to contact someone. With today’s technology, they can block people they don’t like but it’s not my job to be their gate-keeper.
