Original Note:
IMEI registration system for mobile devices is flawed it creates serious privacy risks by establishing a database linking devices to owners, risking surveillance and potential data breaches. The system is technically flawed, as IMEI numbers can be spoofed or cloned. https://www.electronicsforu.com/videos-slideshows/trace-mobile-phone-using-imei-number https://www.blackview.hk/blog/guides/can-imei-be-tracked-without-sim-card
