[asterisk-users] Open CallerID Database?

[Paul]

I think terms of service for most CNAM providers prohibits sharing the
data and limits the amount of time it can be cached for your own reuse.

A public database managed by users would be of little value unless there
are means to verify the data. If people trusted it, outbound
telemarketers might try to put "friendly" CNAM values in.
