And then I could install a Verizon SIM card myself? Sounds much better. I am stuck with Verizon because they have the best coverage in the mountains of Central Arizona.

I am not sure how the mobile operators work in the US, but I was able to install a local SIM card in every country I have been to for more than a few days, which saved me hundreds in mobile data fees across the world.

Yes. SIM = freedom.

SIM-free sounds like something you are given in oppressive regimes with one state-controlled telecom actor.

Can’t see why anyone would want it.
