Going Fully SIP: Why It's Not Ready (Yet)
Episode 4542
Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description
Daniel built an elegant Twilio setup with Claude as his API translator, routing SMS to email and dreaming of a fully SIP-based phone. But he hit three walls: 2FA blacklists, domestic calling economics, and emergency services. In this episode, we break down why these aren't technical bugs but structural features of how the phone network evolved—and why the pragmatic answer is "SIP and carrier," not "SIP or carrier." If you've ever considered cutting the carrier cord, this one's for you.
