Why does a phone need to be in a ferriday bag when phone does not have a SIM card because it uses web-based VoIP service? The phone only needs an internet connection, like wi-fi, and can’t talk to cell towers. Remove SIM from phone, connect phone to wi-fi to get online to access phone service through the internet, GPS can’t function. If a phone without SIM calls 911, it will go through, but dispatch sees no number, no location, no name.
If you get a cell number with a SIM, then port that number to a VoIP, how does KYC matter since you are going.to have to give that number to people with your name, so businesses or offices can call you through VoIP service?
Your argument is purely ideological and reflection of your lack of experience travelling various countries that do not speak English. For example, go to a country where 100% of all business, companies, and offices, use Whatsapp because it’s the most stable form of phone service they have so they don’t have to pay for each phone call and pay for each text message.
You don’t so the baby can live since you decided to be with someone for doing that with them.
