Meanwhile Australia is going to fore carriers to disconnect customers with devices that are not guaranteed to support emergency calling over volte. As there are still unsolved problems with detecting that, the providers fall back to only allowing devices they provided themselves.
god I hate how the government acts like smartphones need to call. smartphones are able to be used as computers and should be treated as such.
Yeah. I'm done with stupid phone number calling. Anybody can fake a phone number. It's stupid as stupid can be. It's time to stop using a phone number and personalize the phone a bit. Like 2FA for calls. If you don't have it, send me a post card thru the USPS and I'll let you have my 2FA access code. Meet me at the mall and I can get you my 2FA. And if I get to meet a bad guy, I'll just change the 2FA for that one person.
