Unfortunately the calling party can show whatever they want for the caller number, there's no validation that it's true.

Ah that's a shame.
I found this:
On this page: https://www.fireandemergency.nz/incidents-and-news/incident-reports/incidents/?region=2&day=Wednesday
I guess the link will not work for long since it literally just says Wednesday in the URL and not a specific date, but the incident number is F4198690.
Is there a way to find more information about it?
Eradication is likely impossible, but there is still a lot that can be done to control populations. But it seems no one is even thinking about it yet (and it might need the "pest" label before anyone puts money into control).
Here's how you can tell if it's actually decentralised.
Was there any more info released about this? Or will we never know the full story?
I like the implication that the AI screening saw "vengeance" and decided they were worthy for short listing.
I like the implication that the interviewer saw it in the job application and decided to invite them to a formal interview before even mentioning it.
Ah, interesting. Thinking about it, do they have vanity plates? If so then all my arguments are invalid.
Currently there is a system. One number, three letters, three numbers. So no chance of mixing up certain characters. If you introduce a different system you will need to make sure you know what system is being used. With your plan you could get a plate that looks exactly like the old system except it's using 0 instead of O.
I suspect there is also a lot of benefit in knowing where numbers and letters will be for having more accurate plate recognition cameras.
The issue is probably that those I, O, Z, and Ss are already on plates since the system is different?
There's a whole Wikipedia page about it. But here is the important bit:
So it's pretty trivial these days because the phone number coming from the phone network doesn't help when the phone network lets you set whatever you like.
