people used to say Google Fi was hard to sim swap because their customer service is super terrible, but then this happened https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/google-fi-data-breach-let-hackers-carry-out-sim-swap-attacks/ the real answer is don't use 2fa sms / phone # for anything important

Some wireless carriers can add more protection to your account when it comes to swapping SIMs such as additional verification steps. I know T-Mobile does, but I can't speak to how effective it is. Best bet is to not rely on your phone number for any authentication.

Don't put your phone number anywhere on the internet. Use some physical auth device like a yubikey. Akin to a trezor but for you're social media acc
