Caller ID Spoofing Hearing Today

Kevin Poulsen writes over on 27B Stroke 6:

The bill would make it illegal for anyone but law enforcement agencies "to cause any caller identification service to transmit misleading or inaccurate caller identification information." The FCC would be in charge of enforcement, and it could levy fines against violators.
