The FCC says new rules will curb SIM swapping. I’m pessimistic | Ars Technica



In case of a snatched phone, there's no SIM-swap going on because they already have your physical SIM, but the point is merely having the SIM is often enough to gain access to and drain bank accounts and crypto.
I'm contemplating on switching to e-sim. Unlike physical sim hindi basta basta ma transfer sa ibang phone. Although I'm not sure sa Smart postpaid ko kung gano ka hirap mag transfer sa bagong phone. Sa Globe eh pupunta ka pa talaga sa Globe store to be able to transfer your e-sim. Kinda hassle Lang na you have to line up sa kanila everytime you change your phone. Pero at the same time more secured.
