I get Robo- calles almost dailey for someone wanting to hook up DISH
Network and also notices that I'm paying too high of interest rate on
a credit card I dont' even own.

If that bothers you, you should sign up on that "don't call" list.
The gov started it a few years ago. I signed up and it cut spam calls
by 90%. Political calls and charities are exempt I think.
So are those you do business with, but you can tell them to leave you
alone and they listen.
Easy to do.
