How To Get Fitted For A Jock Strap

And you, which side are you? Test yourself! Still

In my wandering at night, I reflected on this mini-post: " Telephone Harassment " " In the future, on Christmas Day and Boxing Day promotions phone can only be done from 10 to 19. It was about time that our privacy was protected and there finally broke the so-called, at least during dinner or a movie. The credit is available on all of the new telemarketing promoted by Assotelecomunicazioni-Asstel that " commits companies to comply with the strict rules dictating citizen " . The self-regulatory code telecommunications projects the city could be flooded with offers the most varied only from 9 to 21.30 on weekdays and from 10 to 19 on weekends. addition to taking the piss if you have too! If the phone rings while you are eating the cake you already know what to say. "

I must say, the idea is interesting, even for me
greedy, given my natural hostility towards any kind of fraud, deception or arrogance of the companies, to the detriment of citizens. better if English
- ; more credibility ...), which in Italian are called trade promotion, and in fact, result in breaking the boxes to sell us something? In this regard, significant is the full name that Assotelecomunicazioni gave its C ode to self:

" rules for the regulation of the data extracted from the lists
subscribers for the purpose of sending advertising materials or direct selling or for market surveys or commercial communication, through the use of
phone
"
continue to destroy existence - as well as the planet - with theories of free markets, the markets know that the market is made up of supply and demand. But then, since I have not asked anything, what right do I bother with an offer and come home?

The answer is quite simple: by virtue of Law No. 166/2009
. Until now, companies could call only those who had given their express consent but from 1 February 2011 - date of entry into force of Article. 20 bis - is it all down in favor of the companies, that is, they can disturb us, and it is our job to enroll in the registry of the Opposition
(
The Public Register of Objections is a service designed to collect the users of
public telephone subscribers on the lists

that
no longer wish to be contacted for commercial, promotional or for carrying out market research through the use of the phone. )
, the
whose management was entrusted to the Fondazione Ugo Bordoni
.
This is the case today, but how come it has come to this? To understand and above all, to understand the seriousness of the matter, we must turn back a few steps. The Guarantor of privacy (
guarantor of protection of personal data - The British just do not like) had intervened,
emitting
"
requirements and prohibitions [art. 154, 1 c) and d) of the Code] " , admiring partners srl , to Consodata spa , to Telextra srl. Here is a summary of the press release dated June 2, 2008 of Data Protection Supervisor:

" The Authority has banned some companies specializing in the creation and sale of
databases
(
I admire
Partners Ltd - Consodata spa - Telextra Ltd ) further treatment personal data of millions of users . data, in particular telephone numbers, were collected and misused , ie without having informed the parties concerned and that they had provided without a specific consent to the sale of their personal information to other companies . The fire ban for other companies ( Wind - Fastweb - Tiscali - Sky
)
who purchased from these companies data base, to promote their products and services through a call center ...
were numerous subscribers who have indicated to assure you receive unsolicited promotional calls ...
from the audits of companies that provided the data base, showed that users' data had been collected and sold to third parties without informing those concerned , or information improperly, and without their specific prior consent. ; One of the companies, however, offered on its website data from over 15 million Italian households broken down by income and lifestyles, without the parties concerned were informed and had given their consent to the disclosure of information to third parties. For their part, companies and telephone companies that bought the data and are used for telemarketing, did not bother to check , that subscribers have consented to the disclosure of their data and their use for commercial purposes. "

Back to the present. In press release dated December 21, 2010 , the chairman of Assotelecomunicazioni Stefano Parisi , you can read a bunch of nonsense: " Also included are elements mandatory disclosure be provided in the telephone communication: identification of unique person making the contact and on behalf of which operator you are calling, purpose commercial or promotional contact, and the role of the company that called, specifying that the personal data were extracted from the subscribers; mode "for possible inclusion in the Register of opposition existence of the Code and related website to find more details. "

omit comments on vocabulary and on the dialectic, as it speaks for itself, but I would stress that Internet use in Italy for 47% of the population - and I do not believe everything you read or heard about this change of law - and thus the remaining 53% do not know the Code and certainly can not access the site on the Web to find more details.

" Self-regulation of its telemarketing activities by telecom operators is
a first and clear accountability to the
consumers, which proposes a new mode and as a commercial communication via
phone.
"
Let's see what it means for you gentlemen clear accountability to the consummatory i: " G them or Emperor telecommunications covered by it shall undertake to respect the rules even to their outsoucer, including call centers. It was stressed that the numbers used for phone calls are
those found in directories not listed in the Register of Objections. Are defined
bands and
days in which the contact is excluded : Sundays and holidays; daily from 21.30 to
9:00 ; Saturday before 10.00 and after 19.00 . He settled in the period of 30 days compared
where
can not be contacted again the same number.
" Among the various attempts that companies have been invented to sneak illegally into our lives, there are also: - commercial pre-recorded phone calls without consent

-
telemarketing with random numbers Finally: the first was that the company had to demonstrate our agreement, we now deny us doverglielo. "d And if the rules would be tougher? " In fact, the correct question would be: " For those who are most severe? " Main and have a chronological, in this page of Aduc telecommunications (site really interesting), is a set of 29 articles, of which the first of September 2, 2008 and the last of December 22, 2010.
