“A man’s home is his castle” is a familiar quote. But castles aren’t what they used to be. In medieval times castles were built strong enough to withstand enemy attacks. “Enemy” was defined as anyone you didn’t invite in. Fast forward to today…how many robocalls do you receive daily? We usually get 6 to 10/day. Who hasn’t been contacted by scam artists trying to sucker you into a “special limited time offer”? How often you receive internet solicitations that turn into spam? We get up to 75/day. What about other popups as you surf the net for specific sites? They are constantly interrupting and blocking the view we asked for. Have you checked your snail mailbox lately? Usually 90% of the mail never makes it beyond our recycling can. How about those unsolicited offers from walk-ups to your door, advertising pet-sitting, lawn care, tree trimming, etc.? And the worst intrusion is the 50 to 75 3 minute commercial messages on the TV every day. Call it what it is “HOME INVASION”.
