Re: "Butt" 'phone
If somebody is calling me, that means they know my telephone number; so by simple reciprocity, I should have a right to know their number. Withholding it is basically the telephonical equivalent of accosting someone in the street from behind, while dressed in black from head to toe.
Anonymous calls are blocked on my land line, but my mobile provider won't provide the service so I have to improvise: "We are not at home to anonymous cowards. If your business is important, you may call back without withholding your caller ID."
