lydl lady insisted all mobile phones had a number
I said no.
My reasoning was that it could communicate via local radio access to the internet, and do everything in that network. It did not need a phone network.
My logic is that you really must have mobile access to the internet, so use that as much as you can, before being forced into a proprietary operation.
Your mobile should not use hardware I.e. the SIM card, to identify you. It should be data stored on the machine or on the network.
Funny I had not thought about this before, but I guess people did not have the internet coverage, that they can now have from satellites etc.
The whole use of telephone numbers is so primitive.
