      If you’re using a burner SIM in your regular phone then it’s not really a burner SIM.

      Fine if you’re just using it to hide your phone number companies, but if you’re hiding from the authorities then it’s the devices IMEI which is going to sell you out I’m afraid.

        IMEI’s can be changed. (Which is highly illegal in many jurisdictions) It’s not really worth the effort, I use it for when i need a new phone number for something and don’t want it immediately tied to me commercially. If hiding from the authorities, don’t use unencrypted comms.

    In an electronics tool kit.

    Mostly because the only time recall using that specific tool was when I got my Pixel 8, and that was shortly after release, so its been a minute.
