Book excerpt: A "caller ID" service provided by a telephone company to a customer who subscribes to the service is essentially a trap and trace device which enables the person receiving the phone call to view the telephone number of the incoming call prior to answering the phone. Such devices are generally prohibited without a court order under K.S.A. 22-2525. However, as caller ID service is provided only at the customer's request, it would fall under the exception to the prohibition in K.S.A. 22-2525(c) as the user of the service has clearly consented and indeed subscribed to such service. Therefore, a caller ID service would not violate Kansas law. Cited herein: K.S.A. 22-2525; 22-2529.
