We're getting to the point where all voice conversations will need to be authenticated via OTP, even between family members, on the phone. Especially for banking, etc.

Voice conversations on FaceTime, WhatsApp, etc. are already authenticated. Perhaps it's time to stop using non-VoIP calls?

I wish I could. But unlike my family members, the bank doesn't authenticate me by my voice.
