The only way is a data only SIM card.
It won't have a phone number for anyone to call or text.
Of course you can't make calls or texts either. You have to setup some kind of SIP service is you need to.

We're not talking about individual people, but whole corporations and organizations.

For example. Instance.social is shutting down. Now the whole Org needs to migrate 150 accounts to someplace else. Oh and the old posts are being deleted, can't migrate those.

And the support community you created on there, is going away also. Again, can't really migrate all the old posts and comments. But the FAQ documentation we put there when people asked about it, can be manually copied to the new place. So that's something

That's not a situation any company would want to be in. Better to have their own social home, that they control.

The story had feeling of being written by committee. I think that was it's only real problem.

Hard disagree.
Running your own social media server for official accounts, so you're not beholden to the whims of other providers, is kind of an obvious thing to do for online organizations.

That depends on how bad things need to get.

As a stepping stone to an octo-fold phone? Yes.

One of my favorite movies is Josie and the Pussy Cats. Check it out. If you can't see the product placement, you might be literally blind.

And if you watch to the end, you'll understand the product placement is part of the pointof the movie.

Don't forget the RR workers union, and their members. It's not just Biden

I started buzzing my hair down to an 1/8th inch when I was 14. Then much if it fell out in my 30s also.
