Great video. It is such a shame that these days you have to pay a high premium for decent security.

Not sure if you’ve covered this, but what about a video about SIM locking. In iPhone the feature is called SIM PIN. If you activate it, no one could use your SIM in another phone without the unlock PIN. By default the SIM PIN is often the last 4 digits of the PUK code. But with SIM PIN you can change the code.

Using U.S. Mobile gives you the same advantage of not giving your personal info away to the carriers. The number locking stuff has to be requested manually, and they don’t offer any sort of insurance like efani. But, U.S. Mobile has very cheap MVNO plans so

It seems like for regular people, you’re probably safe by using a SIM PIN, a PIN with your carrier to make changes, and good password. Anything else I’m missing?

Hi josh is standard encryption enough ? Ie apple mail etc ? Thanks buddy long time fan

Thank you! Do you mean standard encryption with email? In whatever case, I’d say that end-to-end encryption is what you’re aiming for.

the world is crazy you try and be private by going to another company to be private yet they need your details lol

Efani is more about security than privacy. There are “anonymous SIM cards” available that might fit more of what you’re looking for.

Doesn't sound like this is for me. But the Privacy cards Josh recommended a while back are great, very useful.

So this is the first video that actually left me a bit confused is Efani like a mobil provider for privacy oriented people thst dont trust thier phone company and you pay a premium to use it? Or is it just for people who travel and need like a burner number and SIM card for a trip ?

@AllThingsSecured

Sorry for the confusion! Efani acts as a mobile provider instead of AT&T, Verizon or any other major carrier. They provide the same talk/text/data plan, but have significantly more security for those individuals and businesses that need it.

Is efani an MVNO meaning they manage their own traffic?

@AllThingsSecured

5 ай бұрын

Yes and no. They’ve added some measures but since they’re having to balance user experience with security, the truth is that most of their customers want it to be easy to make changes. They don’t want to wait 14 days or go through a long verification process. Most people also don’t think that a SIM swap could ever happen to them.

Any internation services like Cloacked and Efani?

Why do you need to make a phone call to get an esim?

It’s part of their verification process, I believe. I had to confirm my IMEI number and then was given instructions on how to set up the eSIM.

Here in Us no need for all this you can do esim in just like 2 minutes. No name or any kind of informations you have to provide to active your e-sim even no one can swap your sim without account# + Pin code. dislike because falls informations

@AllThingsSecured

5 ай бұрын

That's unfortunately not true. An eSIM is in some ways better than a physical SIM card, but it doesn't stop SIM swaps still happen with or without your account #. And yes, you still need to provide all your personal information in order to purchase an eSIM. I don't care if somebody dislikes my videos, but at least do so when I'm actually wrong - which in this case I'm not.
