Americans Say They Want Privacy, but Act as if They Don't...

The reasons I typically reply with a short text are usually:
After reading the post, I have an unanswered question. I don't need to reply to it all, specially if it is a repeat and doesn't address the question that I made perhaps on a previous post, so I insist on the question. I don't say more because I want focus.
I don't accept some stated fact as a fact, and just say so and ignore the rest of the text as superfluous.
The other person is insulting long and wide. I stop reading and ignore the rest of the post.
In this long thread, I stopped answering to de escalate.
I would ask Jeff Liebermann to please read the entire thread before forming an opinion about me. Or, if you do not want all that work, just read the posts by, for example, Keith Thompson, and Arlen answers, then conclude if Keith is a troll as Arlen says. I do not want to explain anything, to not influence you.
Cheers, Carlos.

Dear Jeff,
Did you get a ...00 phone number for your landline? Somehow, I managed to get a home /landline/ number in Iceland that ends in 00, and you can give me a call. As I don't live in Iceland anymore, this number is now S.I.P. and I'll have to turn the "phone" on so give me some advance no- tice before you attempt at calling me.
Alternatively, I can give you a call using my U.S. based S.I.P. number and you'll merely have to tell me when is a good time to call you.
Best wishes, and happy phone numbers!

No. I've had the same phone number since about 1974. It's in the signature. However, it's no longer a "land line" using copper wires from Ma Bell. It's been an Ooma VoIP number since Apr 2022. I use Xfinity for internet connectivity. I've been retired since the end of
2020 and therefore do not need a reliable service. Best effort is sufficient.
Ooma uses SIP (session initiation protocol). To make a SIP call, I need to connect one of my SIP phones or adapters, and call direct. However, I have ports 5060-5062 blocked because I got tired of having my SIP phones probed and crashed.
At this time, I don't want to talk to anyone, especially if I need to reconstruct my SIP phone setup. I've been working on projects that are going too slowly but which hopefully will end by November (or December).

In that case, I simply wish you happy retirement, and success in your projects. Have a nice life!
