Less than $5 Million Gross per year for the world,,,
in 'Do-Not-Call' incentives is kinda small.
Quoting cargo : " The FTC and the Department of Justice
together, have taken action against thirty-four parties,
collecting a total of over $16 million in civil penalties
and $8 million in consumer restitution since the
Do-Not-Call Registry was established in 2003. "
They only won 34 cases! Must not be trying very hard.
We get more than 34 annoying tele-marketer calls, every
week, and we signed up for blockage ASAP.
Does not sound like much of a 'growth' business.
Because, there is certainly not much 'enforcement'.
[And, never will be, for very good reasons.]
Probably why no other Real company decided to waste
any Real cash to write a better program, or any program.
Let's analyze this.
1] Small annoying telemarketers don't need telebunk,
because they keep going BK before paying any fines.
2] Big annoying telemarketers don't need telebunk,
because they just make their annoying calls from
almost anywhere off-shore, where labor costs are much
lower, and there is no law against telannoying.
3] So, who's left to pay for this no-tech 'service' ?
Also, if you read the exact words of the copi PR's, it is
obvious that copi DELIBERATELY DID NOT SAY, that they got
any 'revenue' from 3 or 6 billion screened calls, or even
how many might have been 'blocked'.
Our guess is that copi's programmers were just practicing,
during a weekend of 'development + testing', to see if their
program kinda worked ok enough, to hire a lawyer, to file
a 'patent'. And, it worked good enough. So, copi got a
patent, that has produced 5 years of losing cash. Which is
ok, as long as longs keep buying more copi's.
And, it's still working. Because longs keep buying.
Just 12 hours until this week's copi kick-off.
We are still betting on a kick-down, near .02 ,
especially if the shorters use the new Down-Tick play.
Averaging-down is profitable, for shorters, only.
