If you know who this telemarketing firm is (or is there more than one),
what they are "under contract" to do (i.e. what *are* they told to
say/do) and their trustworthiness as "Primenet's agent," than you
certainly know more than I do re: this issue. 

Furthermore and what you seem to be consistently overlooking, is the
fact that the agreement I made with Primenet *specifically* foreclosed
this event from ever occurring. In other words, they assured me
unequivocally when I gave them my number and other personal information
that they would under no circumstances give my information to a
telemarketing agency. I was concise, articulate, and unambiguous in my
request for this assurance when I gave Primenet my personal information
in confidence. If they had been unwilling to assure me that they "would
never give my information to a telemarketing agency" than I would have
refused to give them the info they were requesting or gone to another
ISP.

I disagree with you. If I were to entrust to you my personal carry and
obtain your assurance that *you will not* turn it over to anyone else to
use or work on, would you feel right in turning it over to someone else
to use or modify ?
