This link no longer works, but a quick google search for the filename yields

If you want a technological solution, put these tones on your answering

The automated calling systems will log your number as being disconnected
(only one of the three is needed, I forget which) and not call you back.


But yes, your cynicism is well founded, with so many powerful special
interests, its tough for the normal interests to have a say.  Reminds me of
how the soda companies lobby for government subsidies for corn so they can
pay less for corn syrup.
