I'm planning to use this clever counter-script to turn the tables on telemarketers. It provides a specific list of questions to ask callers, effectively reversing the roles during unwanted sales solicitations.
I found a recorded message designed to prank telemarketers. By transferring callers to an extension with a voice that sounds very interested, you can waste their time using an automated loop of fake enthusiasm.
I shared Time's list of the century's 100 worst ideas, highlighting Prohibition, the technical roots of Y2K, and telemarketing. It offers a look at historical blunders and the decisions that led to major societal annoyances.
I'm sharing Anti-DMCA, a site advocating against the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. It serves as a resource for those fighting restrictive copyright laws and supporting digital rights and legal reform in the early 2000s.
I'm sharing a hilarious recording by Tom Mabe, who pranks an unsuspecting telemarketer by pretending to be a police officer investigating a murder at the victim’s home. It’s a creative, if extreme, way to handle unwanted sales calls.
I’m redesigning my course for the AI age by teaching students to ask dumb questions, use AI freely, fail, change direction, and challenge broken problems.
