Crazy opinion, but I don't think someone should be able to call in an emergency where a SWAT team might show up, without having that be tracked back to you. This isn't the state proactively keeping tabs on its citizens, it's asking for traceability when somebody initiates an action that might put lives at risk.

It's possible to call emergency numbers without a SIM card. So the caller could use a disposable dumb phone that he bought on a flea market or whatever. The best info the cops could get would be the approximate location of the caller. Good luck with that.

  Good luck with what? If a call can’t be authenticated, don’t send deadly force.
