[Privacy Digest] Anonymous Caller? New Service Says, Not Any More | Privacy Digest: Consumers have had the option of shielding their number from display since Caller ID was introduced in the early 1990s, either by dialing *-6-7 before placing a call, or asking their carrier for blanket anonymity for their line.

[Schneier on Security] Schneier on Security: Defeating Caller ID Blocking: I've always disliked the notion of CLID suppression: if you want to call me, you have no legitimate reason for attempting to conceal your identity. I subscribed to Anonymous Call Rejection for a while, despite the extra charge (which irritates me: why should withholding your number be free, yet rejecting anonymous calls is not?) but BT's handling is quite poor: a recorded 'error' message, rather than either going to voicemail, getting instructions to redial with the prefix 1470 instead (to release CLID) or ideally, a simple voice prompt: "This line does not accept anonymous calls - press 1 to be connected without withholding your number, or hang up." Of course, I'd also want this option to be the default for all lines, so the few exceptions which might actually want to accept anonymous calls can opt to do so, rather than making the rest of us pay to opt out.
