In my experience this is about 90% effective. The
local quasi-scam telemarketers seem not to respect
it (the ones who make like they're paramedics or
state troopers if you don't listen carefully to the
weasel wording). The straight commercial ones
seem to have pretty much gone away since we
got on the list, and saying "I'm on the do not call
list" is a good way to cut the spiel right off for the
rest.

This list has been around for awhile and is still controversal. The big media scum is still trying to put a stop to it, and if they succeed, the list is kept by one of the biggest telemarketing companies in the US and the list will be available to any telemarketer who will pay for it.
Just an FYI.
