@Germo The problem I have is that #eSIM restricts my #FreedomOfChoice re: #Devices.

• Yes, I do use multiple devices and I want to be able to pick them freely.

Same with #eSIM: I can put that on a #SIM #Card *but I can't swap the soldered-down #Chip!

• #Fairphone could've offered / included an #eSIMcard (yes, these do exist!) and thus solved the entire issue: offering #eSIM & #DualSIM without the need of a #TripleSIM-capable #Baseband!

And yes, I routinely use #eSIMcards because I get the #freedom and #flexibility of choice, because it's noone's business which #device I use Which #plans on!

• And whilst courts in #Germany ruled it's illegal to charge for #DeciceSwaps re: #eSIMs, that is only enforceable against #MNO|s & #MVNO|s from #Germany!

Plus many plans I want to use and/or help people to setup are #SIMonly and not available as #eSIM (i.e. #netzclub)...

• No, eSIM is NOT a sufficient replacement even by the sheer fact that most of my devices can't even manage an eSIM Card unless that would he possible just with #ICCDcodes and *"#SIMtoolkit" / embedded Firmware on the #SIMcard!

I dare you to try to deploy an #eSIM on a #2Gonly #StupidPhone whereas a regular SIM can just be chugged in!

@toor I'm glad shit like this is so illegal that even a #Prepaid provider that does offer "#ad-financed data" can't do that kind of shite...

Yes, I'm talking about #netzclub.

Considering how expensive #TMobile in.the #USA is, this is just insulting...
