RE: A self-governing individual does not constrict or limit themselves in anarchy
Plenty food for thought here!
I appreciate your wisdom about slowing things down by refusing to confirm your ID etc by phone ~ this is genius.

Think about it. If somebody calls you, how do you know who is on the other end of the phone? There is nothing they can say that would prove that they are who they say they are. So why talk to them? Whether it is CRA, debt collectors, police, etc. Shut it down and get them to put it in writing. Their word means nothing but they use your words against you! Remember, police can lie! Everything you say can be used against you but never for you. So there is nothing to gain by talking to them over the phone.
Absolute truth!
Here in the UK, when you ring official thems whoever thems may be, most have a recorded message to start off any communication that states that all calls are recorded for training or legal purposes!
Rick and I now have apps on our phones, to protect our interests, that record all conversations and often repeat their dirge to them for a larf!
They don't like it!
One rule for them etc...
We also have a court case pending against the DWP, Department of Work and Pensions, who outright lied about a health assessment which we actually recorded after advice from a disability services group. Everything we said was ignored and twisted in their favour. Of course this recording is not deemed legal!
So much corruption.
Heyho.

I cannot speak for the UK but here recordings are okay as long as one party is aware of the recording. But you are right, by recording the calls and telling them that it is recorded, their demeanor and attitude changes right away. It is another way to protect oneself from them. Great point!
