This law is entirely meant for retirees with landlines (the only constituency that matters anyway in our gerontocracy.) In a sense, it's good to have someone try to tackle an actual problem (I know it's a pain to have to pick up the phone several times a day because of telemarketer. Especially when you're retired and have nothing to do all day than calling friends and discuss how you're going to spend the money from millennials salaries, share buybacks by the employers of millennials, and rents from the kids of millenials who'll never get a house, a job, or a retirement ever.) I suppose we'll have to wait a few decade for a government with a majority to pick up other small topics (climate change, debt wall, increasing inequalities, geopolitics, demographics, water shortages, draughts, food tension, and, oh, the general despair of the generation born after 2000.) But, okay, fine, in the meantime, getting rid of unsolicited phone calls is still _something_. It's a shame the law will not actually, hum, you knows, stop the unsolicited phone calls (they come from abroad and the callers could not care less), and so the retirees with a landline will not see a difference, and will do the natural thing, and vote for Trumpists even more than they expected to anyway. At least we don't get political ads on the phone...
