the affidavit + fax + wait for legal approval process you described is exactly how it should work, like friction as a feature, not a bug. the fact that these vendors bypassed all of that through SS7 ghost operators isn't just a policy failure, it's an architectural one. the telco ecosystem was never designed with the assumption that "legitimate" network participants would be adversarial.
