Great read. While I admire the spite, I question the wisdom of pissing off a government employee with the power to deny your benefits.

And a government employee, who was only explaining in a polite, matter of fact way, what their department policy and government legislation allowed them to do.

If the story is true (I know it's labelled 'nonfiction' but c'mon) then likely the only reason the fax spamming worked is because the department policy prevented them from blocking numbers outside of very narrow circumstances.
