    It’s 2026, there’s no longer an excuse for phone companies being unable to figure out who’s paying for the phone line. Make them liable if they can’t figure out where the call came from.

      I mean it’s also 2026… you can drive 3 cities away, buy a burner phone with cash. Make a call, smash the phone with a rock and throw it in a dumpster. Then it’s down to scary facial recognition tech assuming the store you bought it from has security cameras.
