I have no qualms with the current usage rates of the yellow pages. I’m sure there is still a very healthy market for them, however, my point is about personal choice and creating awareness that we don’t have to keep receiving a service we never use.
The companies that drop them off on my porch a couple of times a year have no idea if I use them or not - they assume. They assume that every household needs their book. The problem is that there may be 5 different companies making this assumption. This means that I receive multiple, competing services that I never utilize. This is simply wasteful and my goal in opting-out is to try to limit the waste that I produce on a personal level. Plus, I want others to do the same. Is that elitest? Or responsible?
