verification codes

SIM verification codes are codes which are sent to a phone number as a text message, usually six numbers. It is required for 2FA logins, and registering a signal private messenger number, etc.

meta datas

So i am referring to the purchase of the sim card, not the method of transmitting the info, although both are relevant. If your friend purchases a sim card, and then you use numbers associated with it, it will be connected to you. It is best to do this through someone you don't know as well, for this reason. it obscures the social networks you are part of.

process for setting up anonymous phone number

this will not provide cell phone phone service. if you are using a sim card, you need to just pay someone to buy one and either mail or give it to you, like you say.

the method i gave, on the other hand, is for setting up voip number, which many providers require an existing phone number to do. This VOIP can be used to register encrypted messaging applications like Signal Private Messenger, or other purposes you may need a cell phone number for, and it will work over the internet (you can use a mac address randomization application like macchanger to anonymize your MAC address and then just use it on public wifi, or use macchanger and a VPN to mask your ip).
