That's interesting. If you don't mind, what rules are you violating?

You're only ever allowed to use your account with the person you validated with. You cannot share an account, e.g. between employees of the same company; if you want to transfer an account to another person over your vacation, you have to create a new account, re-validate, and recreate all certificates on the new account.

Obviously, we said f*k that and just registered everything on the CEO's name and have him do the phone verification.

Oh right, yeah. I'm pretty sure every company violates that particular rule :P
Every company that does this loses all their auditing capabilities on the systems that use these accounts. Not good.
