I wouldn't say it's all that easy because you have to be certified as a
CLEC, Interconnected VOIP, or Wireless provider in order to get access
to numbering resources. A lot of people missed that part in the
guidelines because it was not worded clearly and they didn't know that
you can't get NXXs assigned without providing the certification to the
PA. I contacted Brent Struthers (STI-GA Director) a few months back and
asked him about that because it didn't make sense that you could get
access to NANPA resources without the proper certification to get NXXs.
He verified that you DO have to have a CLEC, Interconnected VOIP, or
Wireless provider cerfification in order to get access to NANPA
resources!

But after my presentation, Jon Peterson (who wrote much of the

implementation: anybody can get an OCN and CLLI code, access to
numbers, get a Service Provider Token and a signing Certificate from
the PA/CA, and then sign every call they want to from any number
they want to.

I think the entire point of S/S (can we abbreviate this yet?) _is_ the
bad actors. Yes, an entity can go through all the hoops to sign calls,
and their traffic will become immediately identifiable. It shouldn't
take long for their certificate to get revoked while the FCC and
others work on fining them out of existence with possible criminal
charges with jail time.
