If there was some type of ruling, its most likely to be a state public
service commission (different names in different states), and not with
the Fed's, etc.
Right, but SOMEONE has to have that number linked to 'Jane Smith'
somewhere. I do not have any sections or numbers or dockets to quote.
What I was told was that Verizon recently had regulation brought down
on them that prohibits them from setting the caller-id on a number to
something or someone NOT on the account.

I was always under the impression that the telcos stored the strings
associated with numbers in their own databases (or in your own cell
phone), thereby only allowing you to make your name appear to be "Jane
Smith" if you spoof your caller id to be the registered number of someone
whose name is actually "Jane Smith".
