this is really simple, companies like Nortel, Lucent need to change their code for caller id, if the number should be blocked then dont transmit it to the far end switch

I hope NuFone doesn't drop asterisk-set-able callerid's after this
article; i've been wanting that feature from voicepluse for a long
time.

These kind of things will be reason (excuse) for Voip to be regulated

Perhaps service providers who allow the Caller*ID to be set should
insist that customers provide evidence that they own the phone numbers
that they want to publish, and then limit the customers' choices to
only the numbers in their approved list.  Calling the customer on the
provided number(s) would be an easy way to check, and a setup fee
could be levied to cover the provider's time and expenses, if required.

Being able to discover a "blocked" Caller*ID is another matter.  Both
are good areas for regulation.
