This is pretty cool (and I think I've mentioned the need for it previously on HN). Is there any current solution for phone calls (over Tor or something) without giving up identity?
- jstanley 10y agohttps://dtmf.io/ https://dtmf.io/ These guys operate in roughly the same space, and they provide phone calls. My service provides voicemail, but currently not phone calls!

- jstanley 10y agoMy mistake! I don't know the answer then.
- ikeboy 10y agoI guess someone could sign up for Google voice using your SMS and then only use it over tor. Don't know how good the quality would be then. https://support.google.com/a/answer/1279090?hl=en https://support.google.com/a/answer/1279090?hl=en implies it doesn't need UDP.
