A communication method using electronic devices over a network. It inhibits communication against receiver's intention, such as nuisance calls, nuisance e-mails, and e-mail attacks, with no heavy burden on the user, while maintaining compatibility with the conventional fundamental communication technology; reduces communication amount of public networks with respect to the nuisance e-mails; allows the user to perform, with more peace of mind and more relaxing attitude, the interaction with others, the activities of recruiting and job-hunting and so on by means of a network; and realizes an amalgam of common communication functions and monitoring/hearing functions or remote control functions. The right of deciding whether to establish communication is shifted to a receiver side. A term "deal" is used which includes both meanings of rights and limitations to be given to a transmitter side. The receiver side gives the transmitter side "deals" in advance, and stores, one by one, the deals given to the transmitter side in association with the ID of the transmitter side. Upon reception, the receiver side automatically responds based on the deals given to the transmitter side and the ID thereof. Communication against the receiver's intention can be nearly automatically inhibited.
