Should just be an Opt-In register... then all the "complication" falls away. If my number isn't listed then don't phone me and if you do the penalties are insanely high.

Call screening ftw! Got 12 calls from Discovery connect trying to flog me some BS.

I'm on the "do not call" list, which means I no longer receive OTPs either. A glitch in the system that continues despite numerous reports going back years.
