Depends on who they are...

If they're a charity or a political organization, by law they have to have some option to press to remove you from their caller list.

If it's a legitimate business, put your phone number on the national DO NOT CALL list.

If it's a huckster trying to "warn you about your credit rating" or someone in India trying to trick you into allowing them onto your computer, sorry, nothing you can do because they don't care that they're breaking federal law.  Try to get their phone number by claiming you're interested but you need to call them back later.  Then report the number to the FCC.

Most of these will take time, but eventually the calls will peter out.

I used get those calls all the time on my desk phone when I was a Detective. I used to fuck with the callers and have em show up at the station to give us estimates for new windows, paint, siding, roofs, whatever they were trying to sell. LMAO. Got bitched at by the Chief over those after a while.

"And what are your options for the security-conscious? Not so much keeping people out, but keeping people in? Uh-huh ... and do you have the new colors from the Dahmer collection?"
