Steve, can you post a link to where you got this? I remember years ago something like this was floating around the web and it was not true. Here’s what the FTC says: http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2008/04/dnc.shtm
It’s a little over a year old but I can’t find anything that says it’s no longer true.

Thanks.
