The actual entire review, for anyone interested. It's not a pleasant read though.

oh damn, thank you for posting this! I had one of these as a kid but could never remember exactly which one it was but that jogged the memory instantly
i mean my partner just proposed to me recently using a ring pop 😂
I wholeheartedly agree tbh
lich king was decent but it felt like the start of the downward spiral
as disabled people, we couldn't possibly figure out voting, let alone have questions around policy. eyeroll
"oops sorry, just a touch of smallpox, don't worry about it!"
not gonna lie, getting pretty tired of being looked at weird for this. at this point if someone makes me take it off I'm just gonna launch into a coughing fit in their face.
oof yeah :| Twilio has pretty much made half a business model out of promising that you can refuse VoIP numbers using their APIs soo it's a real thing
honestly, this responses just pisses me off.
not everyone who needs to be careful with their privacy is fortunate to have a stockpile of money to spend on carriers that are WAY more expensive than they need to be. or reliable internet access.
i understand that you may not have an answer to the original question of "how do I ?", and you have the opportunity to avoid the situation in the whole and not have to think about it -- that's pretty awesome! but it completely ignores the fact that everyone is in a different situation, with specific and unique needs and context. it reeks of being patronizing tbh.
we don't know what this person's situation is, so the thing to do here is to take them at their word and help them with the problem in front of us. suggestions towards alternative solutions are of course welcome, but things like "not sure why youd want to do that" only serves to show that you don't understand the situation.
not everyone has the same choices available to them in their situations, everyone's threat model is different.
and when you need a real, non-VoIP, number for something, wifi helps out how..?
there's a couple places it's the only feasible option, especially if you have other limitations such as needing an esim etc
Personally, no. But I'm the kind of person who walked out of a doctor's office when they told me they wanted to regularly drug test me if I wanted them to take over my prescriptions for meds I was already on.
