Phone numbers are not proper verification

Like your name. Its a rant, thats what they are for, arent they? And no, i am pointing at a growing problem. Since i move within a "digitalnomad" scene i noticed this is a common topic and there are millions of suboptimal solutions to scope around it. I am surely not alone, maybe not 1% yet but remote work is growing VERY fast.

Also i dont want anything to be 100% comform to me. No idea where you got this from. I am really just trying to put some light on a issue i see. All i actually expect is having people think about this issue and if possible offer solutions if not offer a workflow to not make this a complete pain.

Sorry, you're absolutely right, and you should express this. My day job, I just fight with people who want to do things like this, but with no clue as to the costs and the alternatives that would need to be implemented. But somebody will figure it out, either writing a rant, or maybe reading one, and get an idea... So we should have this, but at this point, margins are so low that we need to start ignoring niches that are less than single digit percents. And it looks like things are about to get tighter.
