    “Good fences make good neighbors”. Let’s look at it another way. Does that freedom of movement include encroaching on your home and setting up a tent in your yard? (Or other analogous situation depending on your living arrangement).

    If you said “no”, then you believe in the ability to have a secure and defined space. A country is just a pooled space of a larger community that have collectively decided to have a secure and defined space.

    I think the bigger issue stems from the inequality and access within reason.




  • Also just a note. It’s better to silence the ringer than immediately reject. Some spam systems will register the reject since it doesn’t ring the full 4 times and it’ll mark the number as active. (Even worse sometimes they’ll start calling back to back from different numbers).

    Silencing it lets it ring out the full 4 times and they don’t know if the number still has a person on the other side. Also just using the default VM prompt rather than a custom one will help reduce the numbers.
