Optus, Latitude, Medibank, etc, etc. I have zero patience for any corporation getting prissy about me giving bogus details from now on. Just need a way to get disposable mobile numbers.

You legally have to provide ur identity. Every IMEI number must have a real identity registered to it. Means more than tracking internet/phone usage but due to how cell networks work also tracking locstion.
