Be careful what you wish for. The Don-Not-Call list and Caller ID are useless because callers can forge the ID's that appear on our Caller-ID enabled phones. That stifles commerce carried out over the telephone. Should the FCC ever figure out a way to require revealing the IPv6 address of phone devices to the recipients of phone calls, then it's imperative that the IPv6 address be immutably associated with the calling device in order for Caller ID and the Do-Not-Call list to become effective.
