It’s to connect phone numbers to identities. Getting a physical sim in China involves going in person to a store where they keep your passport and a mugshot (you hold a paper with your number on it) in a database. There’s no free WiFi without requiring a phone number. It allows the government to connect internet users to real identities. |
