Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it can't be done.  Once it left what I initially asked, I stopped paying attention, but it sounds like Steve wants to make it so it CAN'T happen.

  each of those scenario's involve either fraud or intent to do harm and are already prohibited
  in FCC regs even absent the "Truth in Caller ID Act"

    Setting up a drone Asterisk box to take hundreds of thousands of FTP
    .call files at 3AM (by each time zone) and play pro Hillary Clinton
    campaign messages (or whoever you don't like), obviously spoofing
    her/his campaign headquarters caller ID and ANI.

    Obtaining a new credit card from someone's mailbox with the sticker to
    call from your home phone to activate the card.  Spoof their Caller ID
    and ANI, activate, and buy some cool gadgets or whatever people do
    with cards that don't belong to them.

    Setting CallerID/ANI to clients', girlfriends', bosses' cell phone and
    call until voicemail picks up, if no PIN is set, I have full control
    of their voicemail (and could possibly call out, I will have to test
    that with the call back option.  Then someone could really have some
    fun depending on what messages they have saved)

    So many exploits.....

    Thanks,
    Steve Totaro
