[comp.org.eff.talk] Caller ID robustness

iceman@Apple.COM (Ice) (04/05/91)

Just out of curiosity...

  Does anyone know how difficult it is for someone to forge Caller ID
packets?  Does it have the same holes as ANI, or is it more robust than
that?  How does caller ID work, anyhow?  Is it possible (regardlesss of
difficulty level, technical skill required, etc.) to get the list of numbers
that a person has blocked, etc?
