    I sometimes think that the entire phone ecosystem is so irreparably broken that eventually we’ll just drift away from it. Of course without a clear destination to drift over to that hasn’t happened yet. May never happen.

      That’s a huge part of it.

      The global phone system was originally built on the premise that phone companies can trust the call related information provided by other phone companies.

          Yup.

          However there is a massive legacy system Stull in place that still handles the majority of global voice traffic.
