Describe three ways that consumer privacy is protected from direct marketing intrusions and abuses

What will be an ideal response?

The national Do Not Call Registry was established by the federal government in 2003. It prohibits telemarketers from calling any phone number registered with the Federal Trade Commission, so individual consumers can choose to be removed from all telemarketing lists. The Direct Marketing Association established a Do Not Mail List and created the Commitment to Consumer Choice, both of which are aimed at giving consumers control over mail order solicitations they receive. Finally, the CAN-SPAM Act, a federal law, addresses unsolicited, misleading, and inappropriate emails from Internet marketers.
