Gallus2023,

Let me take a real life example here. Let’s say I’m worried about SIM-swapping schemes, and I go and get a phone number for my banking, and my banking only. If THAT number suddenly shows up in the midst of the 123+ so data brokers, then clearly, me getting a phone number dedicated to avoiding SIM-swapping, is useless. That’s one of the use cases. Makes sense?
