Once regulations against disruptive bot traffic are effective enough that you don't need captchas, please ban captchas. But I don't see why you would do it the other way around. (Unless you secretly know that effective regulations against bot traffic are impossible.)

Have you tried register your phone number in the DO-NOT-CALL list (or your local equivalent)?

Did it stop anything?
