Nice troll.

While in some cases you have to supply a working email address, this doesn't have to be your main one, or resemble it.
Sounds like there is more than your email address at stake here.
If you're picking up the phone for a number you don't recognize, it's like you're walking naked on top of a trench in the middle of a fire fight.
Why? Do you assume that once we pick up we will obey everything the scammer asks for? That might be advice I give to my elderly mother, but we are not all or senile yet. Once you have got as far as checking the caller number you might as well pick up, and if it is an Indian accent telling you there are "hackers in your windows" (or even without the Indian accent), you can enjoy telling them to fuck off. I always do it.
In any case, you must live an uneventful life. In mine there are all sorts of reasons for picking up an unknown call, and not even for business reasons. For example last week I had workmen coming to do a roof repair. The driver could not find me so they phoned for directions - from a mobile number previously unknown to me of course.
Until they end caller ID spoofing or hiding, robocalls of any kind will never end.
Why do you think that would end it? If I get a call from someone claiming to be from my bank, what is the point of knowing the calling number when I don't know my bank phone number off the top of my head anyway.
More simply, if I pick up to a caller with an Indian accent telling me to transfer all my money to some other "safe" account "because there are hackers in my windows", I don't know about you but I don't need to check his phone number to know it's bullshit.
Because they seem to be powerless to stop them.
They will be powerless to stop these too.
Lol i live in the city and the street parking is not marked lengths and there are trucks all over the place parked two tires on the sidewalk.
Nice of them to leave the extra room on the street for cyclists to go around.
That is not why they do it. They do it as a way of saying "Fuck you" to pedestrians.
For the streets with marked spots, they could have (say) three different sizes with three different rates (and a fine if you park a car too big for a spot in a small one.)
If a bigger car can get into a smaller spot with no overhang, what is the problem?
Most UK parking is done via app now,
That is not what I have observed.
SUVs especially in older towns take parking spaces for 2 smaller cars - charge accordingly - it is that simple.
What BS. According to that, cars change their size according to how old the town is. Anyway, you would need a 2-seater Smart Car to get near being half the length of an average SUV, but that would not halve the length of the parking because they still need manoeuvering space. Car parks are marked in bays and even the smallest car occupies a whole one. In streets where there is a charge there are also marked lengths, one per parking meter. Where I am, some streets are reserved for residents only (who are exempt in this Paris thing anyway), and where there are no parking places marked on the road it is because there is plenty of space and no parking problem anyway.
.. parking rates should reflect how much of the street a vehicle takes up.
I'm not sure what you mean by parking rates - is that something in USA streets? Otherwise, at least here in the UK, car parks are marked out in bays and even the smallest car occupies a whole one. In streets where there is a charge there are also marked lengths, one per parking meter. The length is somehow calculated on what the 99%ile competent driver can manage to get in or out in the 1%ile smallest car, or something like that. Drivers of larger cars may need to be more competent than others. Some streets are reserved for residents only (who are exempt in this Paris thing anyway), and where there are no parking places marked on the road it is because there is plenty of space and no parking problem anyway.
There was malicious criminal action by Fujitsu employees that put people in prison.
Fujitsu did not take criminal action. The Post Office took criminal action against its own sub-postmasters, using dodgy evidence supplied by Fujitsu. Fujitsu knew it was dodgy, and told the PO it was dodgy, but the PO used it anyway, and Fujitsu did not speak up when they saw the PO using it to prosecute and extort money from its sub-postmasters. IMHO the PO should be criminally prosecuted for obtaining money by deception, and for perjury, and Fujitsu should be criminally prosecuted for aiding and abetting them.
