Whatever communication method you select, there will always be ties to a carrier.
In GSM it’s a IMEI ID / phone number, in TCP/IP it’s a MAC/IP address. Internet also requires a subscription, subscriber and more.
And how would you implement a messaging service with “anonymous” endpoints ? Can’t send messages without a unique identifier for the recipient.
- kilburn 5y agoSMSs are expensive in the EU. Typical mobile plans don't include them and they cost some cents per message (<255 bytes) which would add up quickly. Only some "2fa" and notification systems use them. Actual people don't.
