English isn't my first language (I'm Ukrainian), so I use tools to make posts readable
Ok, fair, but I wouldn’t recommend using ChatGPT to replace your English skills, if that’s what you’re using it for. For example, I write my posts in English in my own words, and then I let it only fix mistakes (from which I learn).

Fair hit on the AI polish - English isn't my first language (I'm Ukrainian), so I use tools to make posts readable( The product and the answers are mine though, so ask away.
On how it works 0 honestly, no loophole. It's a stack of boring facts:
Prepaid data-only roaming SIMs issued from jurisdictions with no mandatory SIM registration don't require subscriber ID at all
Providers like us buy wholesale from those operators. The operator sees one business account (ours), not the end user. So the only identity in the chain is whatever the reseller chooses to collect - and we chose to collect nothing: no account, no email, crypto payment, your order exists as an opaque ID
Our team comes from the telecom side - years of it - so we work directly with several operators and wholesale suppliers, not through a single aggregator API. In practice that gives two things:
Redundancy - if one upstream degrades in a country, we route new orders through another
Performance - where possible, our profiles use local breakout / local network identities instead of home-routed roaming. The visited network treats the eSIM almost like a local SIM: local IPs, lower latency, better speeds than the classic "route everything through one EU core" setup most travel eSIMs run.
Silent.link works on the same regulatory mechanics at the network layer (their FAQ hints at it) - the real differences between providers are what they refuse to collect, and how their routing is built.
On DIY for personal use: technically possible - wholesale eSIM aggregators do sell APIs - but they onboard businesses, with volume commitments and KYB checks on you, which is ironic given the goal. For one person it's not worth the paperwork: buying from any no-KYC provider with crypto gets you the same result in two minutes
So no magic and no loopholes - just boring telecom plumbing, done by people who've spent years in it
