Recently I used QuickPWN to jailbreak my iPhone, and one of the great tools not available in the official App Store is iBlacklist. As other Canadians know, there’s been an unfortunate increase in telemarketing calls since the National Do Not Call List went into effect.

With iBlacklist, I just add a number to the blacklist, choose an action (auto-hang-up, straight-to-voicemail, etc), and I never have to receive an unwanted call or SMS again. The application keeps a log of what it has blocked:

That’s three unwanted calls in the last few days that I never even got a ring for! (According to 800notes.com, this particular caller purchased my information from a credit card company.)
