I propose that we delete the actual phone app. There's no rhyme or reason to actually have a stupid phone number that nobody can remember. Simply replace it with a fediverse name handle and let's move forward with the rest of our lives.

Secondly, I propose encrypted communication where I will allow o only a select few people to actually call me. If anyone else wants to call me, you can register in my phone access app and I will approve it for next call.

Unfortunately our society is still dependent on phone and email. Can't really do much of anything without them.

Sounds like you would enjoy SimpleX.
