In Australia they have to record the details of the person buying the phone, but suffice it to say that relying on someone making minimum wage at a supermarket to enforce national security isn't particularly effective.
- brokenmachine 8y agoJust buying a phone at the supermarket doesn't make the SIM work. When I registered my last SIM, I did it online and they wanted Drivers Licence number and a lot of other info that I felt was quite a lot just so I could use a phone.
- angry_octet 8y agoYeah they try to track when people have lots of phones registered to them. But last time I did it they were not able to correctly validate international passport numbers. Or you could just buy validated sim cards from poor people or international travellers.
