In my country you have to registers SIMs with your real id/name, however criminals just use stolen SIMs hehe
The other day a neighbor of mine got a new phone and asked me to do the start configuration, create Google Acc, download Facebook, TikTok, Whatsapp and crap like that, she had all of that in her previous phone, but she traded it and didn't remove the SIM card and thought it was a less of hassle creating a new acc for everything and registering a new SIM in her name than simply keeping her SIM and writing down her email addresses and passwords... and I believe a large portion of our population operates like that, absolutely barbaric.
