    Google Fi users now have a handy tool to fight illegal SIM swaps
    The feature comes after the FCC introduced new rules to fight against
    SIM swap scams.

    Google Fi has implemented a Number Lock feature to fight illegal SIM
    swaps.
    This feature blocks your number from being transferred to another
    phone or to a new network.

    That is stupid. So I have to talk to dip-$#$@#$ in the stores to get
    anything done? They have to know where
    I am, without me doing it myself? $#@@# $@#$@#$# rubbish.
