[comp.dcom.telecom] Democratic Caller ID

dave@uunet.uu.net> (12/25/89)

It is interesting to note (as a recent poster to this group has) that
AT&T's INFO-CALL service is basically a little-known Caller-ID service
that's been around for a long time for 'big guys' like American
Express Co.

Any state that legislates against the provision of Caller-ID service
will, perhaps inadvertently, legislate against INFO-CALL, as well.
This should bring some 'big guns' out in opposition to such
legislation!

Caller-ID, like other luxuries, should not be limited only to
subscribers like American Express.  It should be available to all
subscribers who want it enough to pay for it.  Even residential
subscribers! No?
