- graemep 2y agoThere is a lot less of that in IRL interaction than online interaction. I find months can go buy without anyone knocking on my door. IT does not help with the just phoning bit but does with stopping by. I do not get that many spam calls but I think that varies a lot, especially between countries with different laws about it.
