    As far as I know, the UK is the only place on the planet where reverse directory listings are illegal. There are some weird laws there.

    We have the ''Data protection act', I don't accept unsolicited phone calls, I just tell people that and put the phone down.. anyhow mobile phones numbers are not listed anywhere and landline owners have the same option as well..
