Activate Do not Disturb? Why?

Do-Not-Disturb-Messages-Lt-Blak

This SMS says!
"Amitabh Bachchan ke sath ek haseen shaam bitane ka mauka aur poore 7 Lakh ke inaam Dial *567*4#"
"To spend a wonderful evening with Amitabh Bachchan and to get 7 Lakhs worth reward, Dial *567*4#"


They call it Telemarketing SMS's or Unsolicited Commercial Calls
I am Lt Blak, I believe in sharing the facts...
I want you all to know, What is Wrong and What is Right!
I get these SMS's almost everyday, sometimes irritates the shit out of me!
How does my Phone number leak out into their Phonebooks?
Why do they leak our numbers?
Why do I have to fill in complicated forms & my crucial details, just to avoid these calls or SMS's?
What about my privacy? Do they really value my Privacy?


Value-my-Privacy-Lt-Blak

This is what they say about Privacy!
I value my privacy. And so does Xxxxfone.
Xxxxfone respects my privacy and takes great care to protect my number and personal details.
Sometimes they might try to get in touch to let me know about a recommended tariff,
a new offer or an innovative service that may be of interest to me.
But I have the option to avoid unwanted telemarketing calls...
by registering my Xxxxfone mobile phone number in the NDNC (National Do Not Call) registry.

The Most Kickass and Coolest President in the World...
Currently the president of Uruguay, is known for being a rarity among powerful politicians,
as he chooses to donate around 90% of his $12,000 monthly salary to charities that benefit poor people and small entrepreneurs

Lt Blak respects humble and honest people like him.
It requires a lot of guts and self determination to live by one's principles.

A Guerrilla Fighter
A guerrilla fighter for Tupamaros (a "Robinhood" organization that stole from the rich and gave to the poor) he was imprisoned twice,
kept in horrible conditions, escaped once, and was only apprehended after being shot six times by the police.
He was released fourteen years later when a constitutional democracy was restored.

Presidential Palace, House and car
Although this beautiful palace with 42 staff members is available to him he instead lives on a small farm a few minutes from the capital.
He drives a 1987 Volkswagen Beetle, and is a part time farmer, growing flower for sale at nearby markets.
He lives in a small house with his wife, who was also imprisoned guerrilla figher and member of Tupamaros, who is now a Uruguayan senator.

Guards

A Honest Man
This man is leading by example. It is clear the power has not corrupted him.
He leads for his people.
We need more world leaders like him.
