> I thought only old people still do phone calls for private communication.
FTFY
Just yesterday I received spam call, my only response was answering with "Yes?", then when they started to talk about something I just hang up without a word, they wasted enough of my time and energy. Private matter I communicate 100% through IM or video calls within IM, it must be very rare ocassion that my retired father calls me on the phone or that I have to call wife because she is not responding to IM.
compared to the myriad of ads plastered everywhere. I suppose the latter has just been normalized - yet the amount of 'energy' (as in joules; or as in human frustration) is unparalleled compared to the one spent on unwanted calls, or just calls.
