There was a time when you either had phone service or internet. But not both at the same time.

And if some bastard tried calling you when you were on the internet, they weren’t your friend any more.

There was a code you could use when dialing your provider to disable the 2nd call tone for a call. Put that in your phone number for dialing and your friends would get a busy signal, as god intended.
