Who doesn't know it: the telephone computer. When you call a bigger company or governmental institution, you surely already talked to one. That's okay, theres nothing negative about this natual, passive of computer usage, but the absolutely most annoying things are computers calling me! When you pick up the phone, a freindly female voice welcomes you, saying: "You have received an important message...". Then, you are asked to have something to write ready next to you, and then she says: "You have won...", "...the prize is assured to you...", "...please call the following number...". I guess nobody is fooled by this, right? As this is just disturbing to me, I decided to not pick up the phone if the caller doesn't send his number. It's just some insurance agent in most cases - or not even a human!
