Are Phone Book Directory providers spamming you?

According to the definition of spam the answer is yes.

Scott Alliy creator HomesandRealty.com and online homes services directory and several other online information directories believes that the barrage of Phone book directories dropped on his lawn are SPAM.

The technical definition for SPAM according to an online dictionary To send unsolicited e-mail to or to send (a message) indiscriminately to multiple mailing lists, individuals, or newsgroups.

Mr. Alliy feels that unrequested and unsolicited Phone book Directories qualify as SPAM as well since none of us have formally asked for the growing number of directories being literally thrown at us and our properties.

Mr. Alliy returned home recently to find three such phone directories on his lawn and prompltly threw them away. According to Mr. Alliy, If I wanted ten pounds of advertising mixed with a few phone numbers I may never use I would have asked for it

Mr Alliy asks, how would our homes look if everyone who felt they had a useful product proceeded to dump their own wares in our yard?

Mr Alliy has a message for businesses who advertise in the Phone directories. If you are trying to find me and thousands and thousands of others like me who live on the net then you need to be on my computer and not my lawn.

Which begs the question, is it time for society to turn the page and for the phone book to take it's rightful place along side the ringer washer and Archie Bunkers chair?

Save the forest save the trees save my back please no more phone directories on my lawn.
