Don't all phones can call 911 even without a sim card?
Yeah, most phones can call 112 or 911 without a SIM card, but apparently some networks still block them which is more than a little fucked up.
All phones can, and all networks in the US and EU at least are legally required to accept emergency calls from any phone, if it's in their network or not, or if it has a simcard or not.
The SIM card only acts to identify you, it is not technically necessary to place any call
I wonder how it decides what network to use when the Sim is out.
Strongest network? Preferred network? Chooses the one that's been the biggest bitch as a fuck you to them?
Seems like the kind of networks regulators should shut down
or at least fine a few million per day
Your profite picture is driving me mad. This is genus.
