2016 Election SPAM - how to stop it?

[MickeyD]

I'm sure that many of us are receiving some form of electioneering SPAM.

Obviously pamphlet drops will continue but how do we stop all parties from spamming us via phone calls, SMS, WhatsApp, etc. ???

From another thread:

Please use http://www.da.org.za/unsubscribe if you wish to no longer receive DA communication.

Please note that without your identifying particulars, we cannot add you to the listing of people with whom we must not communicate.

For example, if you provide a number or an email address only, we block only those details but if you tell us who you are we can ensure that - regardless of a particular contact point - we don't include you as a person in any future communication.

Got this yesterday,

DA wil jou stem gebruik om ANC te help met regstellende aksie, swartmagtiging en rassekwotas. Stem llewer VF+. Die VF+ veg vir jou regte. To opt out sms stop

I get the gist of the SMS except this word "swartmagtiging"

Thanks. My Afrikaans is a bit lacking, I don't know any big words and worked out the rest from context.
