I would give anything to have the telephone system we had at JIATF (Joint Inter-Agency Task Force) East down at Key West when I was in the Navy. There was no hiding who you were, or where you were calling from. We had a Chief Petty Officer who was going through a nasty divorce. His "wife" was really raking him over the coals. Bill collectors started calling. At work. One day one called, and Chief Wilson had had enough. He told the guy, "I know who you are, and you are calling from 1123 South Street, in Barton, Maryland. If you EVER call me again, I will track you down and find you and f#$%@ing kill you, no matter where you try to hide. Do you understand what I am telling you?" Admiral Grannuzo, who looked more like a mafia guy than a Navy Admiral, said, "You tell 'em, Chief!" No bill collectors ever called again.
