How is that semantics? Fraud is already illegal literally everywhere, so spoofing your number for fraudulent purposes will obviously be a part of that crime.

If this is intended to defend your original claim, you’re being utterly ridiculous. You made a specific claim about caller id spoofing, not fraud.

For example, If you’re spoofing a random number for telemarketing calls that’s just not fraud.

It absolutely is, and in most civilised countries is illegal.

Like, I can totally believe that in the USA where any old lunatic can own an automatic weapon amd nobody gets concerned until he shoots up a school thats the case ye

There’s probably some constitutional argument that you can spoof your number based on something ridiculous like free speech

I feel like we’re moving goalposts here and “civilised countries” will sooner than later become “English-speaking countries”, in which case I’m totally willing to concede that you’re probably right.

Very few countries have found it necessary to prohibit CID spoofing.

More semantics. Yawn. Save it for debate club.
