I'm 28 which is not that old admittedly, although perhaps older than the median startup employee. By the time I was fourteen I stopped answering my home phone because it was just telemarketers and I was fortunate enough to be an early cell phone user ( and mostly communicated with my friends via AIM). I am not turning towards anyone. I want to choose who can contact me and when, because I like being able to sleep and do things without interruption. The fact that phone numbers can be hidden or falsified when initiating contact with me makes phone calls rather broken and is the main reason I haven't investigated an AdBlockPlus style phone filtering app to preemptively block telemarketers. It is not selfish to want to live peacefully, it is selfish to demand the right to interrupt me.
