hee hee hoo hoo you should definitely bring the self-surveillance device that is registered in your name, covered in cameras, and reports its location at all times to a legally dubious event

great plan

          Yeah surprisingly seems to be true. I’ve bought a SIM with cash before. They do ask for your full name and address at the very least but its conceivably possible to do with a fake name and address and topping it up with cash every so often.

          But almost nobody does that, and it doesn’t really change the point of the OP since if you ever use the sim for identifiable comms or in identifiable locations or sign into other services in your name using it.

            Get a prepaid plan on some other reseller they dont need shit.

            Verizon ATT etc will ask all that info if you’re signing a contract or burying a phone on credit.

            Or better yet just dont put a sim in a phone and just use it on WiFi.

              That wont stop the tracking, at least here. Even without a sim they can use connection to emergency networks and the imei to track you.

              Of course here you need id to get a sim
