great content Naomi, i have been saving important content like this for future reference. In all instances, i keep running into the same problem; "the chicken or the egg". Say someone wants/needs a fresh start with ZERO exhaust/footprints.. to get a New Email and New Phone number without any history of either or. Its a serious problem... Now since i worked in I.T. and just want these MegaCorp Aholes to leave me alone and not continue trying to exploit me.. we have to ensure that there is no crosstalk between Corp and Gov. At least some are wise enough to leverage GDPR and make Apple&MS&Google pay for crossing that line. But I will say this. If the WEF and WHO mess around with the Digital Passport, we have to revolt as no one will be safe. Now, just presume.. i want a new number.. just so I can be on twitter or IG with a clean account and no "identification" needed. VoiP services do NOT work. And if your number is banned there is no appeal process. Previously there were companies and sites that had FREE TEMP LIVE NUMBERS and one could easily use it to create a new account. That said 4:11 "but that's outside the scope of this video." And 16:05 "we'll go over that.. in another video.." I'm getting the vibe that we have too much polish and not enough shine. That said are (complexity aside) are Twilio and Telnyx End User friendly or are they business oriented only. As their service pipeline does that damned thing where "here is a API stub and call our sales dept today." Meaning an actual botter could use there service no issue but mere mortals are stuck. Hopeful mySudo will stick to being good, i'll have to review the EULA. In summary the stuff you didn't cover.. as in VoiP to Real Cell number. Is what matters. Ive tried several of these apps for VoiP such as Sideline and Burner. However, none of them worked and WORSE? actually tripled the amount of Spam calls I recieved.

I've been using a Google voice voip number for 10 years now and it's the best in its class. The big problem with this is that more and more companies are starting to refuse VOIP numbers. And that's when I'm left with only one option, to use my real number.

I've been using a different option. If a company says something silly like "you can't use this number," I send the company a bill for the cost of a number that they like. If they're not paying me enough to support a cellular number that they approve of, they are cut off until they pay up or change their stupid policy. I just had a company that I stupidly gave my number to many years ago, and they just started Texting me again after I told them not to use that number. Don't give these companies your number unless they are paying you.

@@mildsoup8978 You can start with the cost of buying an additional cell phone number and whatever phone that the company demanding 2FA is requiring. If they don't want to pay, say no. If they insist that 2FA must be used and must use your cell phone, tell them that they may not use your cell phone and walk away. If they demand a USB stick, tell them to pay for it. It is the responsibility of the companies demanding security schemes to pay for and provide the items required. They assume that everyone owns a smartphone that is never used by anyone else, always has the same phone number, and is always attached to the owner, and so they believe that they can use the phones for their own purposes. I recently turned away a retailer that insisted that I must "get the app" to claim rewards points. No! They want your phone number and they want your identity associated with that number. Stop using your cell phone number as a form of identification!

There's a guy in the UK that leveraged this with his electric company whom was known to sell personal phone numbers. He purchased a brand new phone with a new phone number and used it only for his electric company. He then took the electric company to court. Whenever he has a telemarketer it pays big bucks to keep them on the line. XD

@Mecambrea77 Yes, I knew the stalker and once confronted, they ran away like a coward. They suffer from drug addiction, and so I believe they were getting high and sending spoofed messages to me, not really knowing what they were doing. I reached his parents and let them know their son needed help. I also reached his job and he quit the job and disappeared. The stalking and harassment stopped. Most stalkers are cowards, and once they are confronted, they usually stop. Blocking doesn't work when they use random spoofed numbers which sucks. That is why I say to never give your real number to anyone unless you know them well.

great information! and looks like I currently are doing the right thing, as most of the tips you are giving I was already implementing.

Any number other then a regular cellphone number issued by a carrier isn't accepted by many companies including banks. They have systems in place that instantly tell them when a virtual number is being used. Google voice used to be the defacto number but even that isn't being accepted in many places.

It’s a shame Google Voice only works in the US (for this purpose).

Thanks for the info! It's certainly something to think about. My current solution is somewhere in between. When asked for a phone number, I'll usually give my home number, which is VoIP-based through a custom Asterisk instance, where I can put all kinds of filtering to fight spam calls. When the time comes that I no longer have a real home phone, I can keep doing that, but the Asterisk instance will be a voicemail server that can provide a fake ringtone if desired. That server is actually already set up... I use it as a backup for my home system, in case my home internet is down. The result is that I get a ton of spam calls to my home number, most of which can be filtered so the phone never rings, and the cell phone is quiet.

Just thinking about how you could totally get the parents on board with the 'different number for school' thing. The look of utter astonishment and 'you are my hero' when you tell somehow how to turn off all the unwanted app notifications on their phone and then that crestfallen look when they go 'but I can't block unknown numbers because school', having separate 'emergency number(s)' they could keep on while switching other hassles off could be a game changer. Also empowering for making sure work hours stay within work hours. Even managing voluntary hours, which is sometimes even worse because volunteer jobs don't have work hours. Also had one time a friend went camping and switched off their phone because they couldn't deal with one side of the family, only to relatedly realise their satellite phone had failed and their emergency back up person and other side of the family were panicking. I showed them how to block everyone but emergency contacts while on silent mode after that but yeah... multiple phone numbers could have been really useful, if only to leave one emergency contact number to their back up person available while still switching the rest of the world off.

I have been using a Magic Jsck VoIP phone for well over a decade. Cheap and works well. Recently I was forced to get a Smart phone. A week later, I was hacked and had my IDENTITY STOLEN, which led to my bank accounts robbed through E-Transfer Request Money, which I had never used. Absolute horror. More than $12,000 stolen. It would never have happened if I had not got the darn Smart phone.

One question I'd have is if you can keep a data plan active on a sim without a phone number linked to it. Some companies have privacy respecting service providing (the most recent one I've seen is Purism's AWEsim) with unlimited data, so being able to get a sim without a cell phone number attached, linking the number that would be attached to a VOIP, then using that infinite data sim on your phone would be a pretty killer combination. (especially since it means you could leave your phone's wifi turned off, which is always good since it prevents all the baggage that comes with like wifi probing)

This sounds very complicated but fortunately I understand most of the points

This is really interesting. I've know about VoIP but not to this extent. I do have a question. Am I understanding correctly that I could sign up with MySudo and port my iPhone number over to them. Then wait the 48 hours for it to sync, after which, I would no longer need my current cell phone provider?? I could cancel my account?? All I would do then is pay the monthly fee to MySudo and operate as before, but using a chosen range of VoIP numbers instead? Is there a suggested, more indepth, video on the step by step process on how to do this?? Thank you! And I LOVE your videos. You do an awesome job!

Noami, Tremendous presentation. It would help if it wasn't quite so fast, with pauses between topics. Here are some qs I have Is cell data the same as wifi? To not be tracked, u have to use voip with data off? How would using googlemaps work? Or using your cell for photos and videos? Merci

Been applying to new jobs for a career change, and exclusively use the house landline, and a burner phone number forwarding service.

all those services will be tied to your landline, which isn't ideal for privacy.

I must use a landline, because there is no mobile phone signal where I live.

I helped an elderly man create an email for a discount he requested. He never used it and I only signed one company to the phone. When he came to the office there were hundreds of emails. The company was car insurance and the email was outlook.

Problem is Google as a VoIP provider has been mostly discontinued (Certainly the Google Hangouts Dialer and indeed Google Hangouts has been discontinued in favour of video connections) which brings the question of which VoIP service will continue to be provided over the long term. Yes, we need to separate out our security identification use from normal casual use and this is true for voice phone lines, SMS text messages and for email. I don't think we'll ever completely untangle ourself unless we start really early in life, but we do need to start rolling everything over. Now you usually only get one free phone number per VoIP company and you loose it if you don't use it regularly, sometimes you can subscribe to some service which will keep it live at a cost, additional numbers will of course require subscriptions, you can easily loose track of the phone numbers and wind up with quite a subscription list. I still remember when businesses would only deal with land line numbers and refuse cell numbers, now it's cell numbers that they want...

They were trying to switch from Google Voice to Hangouts, but I think no one liked it and it was confusing. Now they're discontinuing Hangouts & supporting Voice again. So they're back to were they started which is Google Voice which always worked well and so far is getting better.

@@YourFriendCaspian Seems that Google Voice just says not supported in your country. It did turned out to be installed on all my devices though for some reason, probably because I used to use it, then the hangouts dialer. However, it appears Google Voice just doesn't have the support it once did. Real shame too, there were times when I didn't have my smart phone with a Sim with me, but did have one of my older phones and hence could still dial out through Google Voice and later Hangouts dialer.

Nice. The more important the privacy the more solutions are possible. Can I buy an entirely new phone that would allow me to have a switch on it that would disconnect the antenna(s) on the phone? Can you do a show showcasing phones that could be directly set to privacy, at times called the dumbed down or weekend phones?

Thank You!!
