I remember vzw being on 3g and not having Sims. It made changing phones a bit of a hassle. I hated having to either go into a store or call in. Hopefully there’s better ways in the future if this does happen.

No one is asking for it. That won’t stop Google from continuing the enshitification of everything they can.

It was annoying before because there was no sim. You had to register your device with the carrier for it to work.

E-sim is different. You can have multiple esims on one phone and even move them to other phones.
