    Is it tied to my real identity?
    If not it seems to me that it should be sufficient as to serve as a security this phone is legit and not emulated/compromised.

      Yes it's tied to your identity. It's also not tied at all to your OS.

      In the eu, phone numbers by law are tied to state identities.
      And the phone provider can naturally resolve their sim IDs down to the phone number they are assigned to.
      Anything related to celltower interactions is PII.
