You are right but my concerns is the ITSP's may stop allowing it because they don't want to get in to trouble. They may request a list of all the DID's that I have and limit me setting my CID to the list that I gave them.

  The Proposed bill S704 reads "It shall be unlawful for any person within the United States, in connection with any telecommunications service or IP-enabled voice service, to cause any caller identification service to transmit misleading or inaccurate caller identification information," 

  Please tell me how you can construe making a call with the the CID of a number in your control to be "Misleading or inaccurate"

    Anyone know if this is only to "bother some one" ? I have a client that has a consulting business. The clients call in and his asterisk server call's his cell when he is out of the office. It passes along the CID. I hope the laws don't screw this up for those that change CID on every call for legitimate reasons.

      Anyone running caller id spoofing applications in the USA running asterisk?



      Then it's time to move them to Canada or similar.
