Can anyone tell me whether there was any public debate in the U.S when the FCC authorized Automatic Number Identification for the long distance carriers? If there wasn't any debate, how can we explain the different response to Caller ID? Are there any good FCC sources for information of this kind? Comments, information, suggestions appreciated.
