This is a backdoor way they are trying to introduce mandatory SIM registration.
- dazc 3y agoGovt id is required to purchase a sim card in many EU countries. If the UK Govt decided to implement such a policy based on something like 'security' there wouldn't be a lot of push-back. Let's overlook the fact that such policies just make stolen id a lot more valuable than it is already.
- specproc 3y agoI'm all for it continuing, but it always struck me as wild how you can just pick a UK SIM up at the airport from a vending machine. I don't know of many countries where this is possible.
- nibbleshifter 3y agoI've found that policy trivial to circumvent in most EU countries I've visited (which is most of them). Its also a stupid fucking policy.
