I think they mean that a phone number is required for many official things.

Yeah I don’t think it’s actually illegal yet for a citizen to not have a phone number but try to get a job, go to school, pay your bills or be anything other than a wood chopping hermit without one. I’m a hermit but I heat my home with natural gas so I’m all but required to have a phone.
