Google Voice is requiring ID verification now, and porting your phone number out is difficult as they charge an unlock fee and you get to deal with Bandwidth.com's port out shenanigans as they are the real underlying carrier for Google Voice.

> Google Voice is requiring ID verification now

Yep, this is a crappy change going forward :-(

However, Google Voice does not require ID verification for preexisting accounts, so this has no effect on existing users.
