Not sure who your provider is, but I've not heard of anyone implementing the feature and not providing a way to disable it. So if you really have it displaying, then there's likely an option to disable it.

I think this is a case of someone puffing the magic dragon and watching TV.

How is it an invasion of privacy to know who is calling YOUR phone on your TV?

And its very easy to disable, its in your settings menu.

The same genius who also made it so that you can turn it off if you don't like it. How about letting the ones who find that feature useful enjoy it while you go ahead and disable it? Nobody is forcing you to use it.
