I'm hearing from one of my carriers that in order to continue sending P2P
(NOT A2P) SMS from our DIDs, my $dayjob needs to purchase and maintain a
NetNumber ID to use as the SPID for SMS.

I'm also hearing that ALT-SPIDs are being discontinued.

Does anyone else know about this change, who is driving it, and why? Anyone
want to share costs involved in getting and maintaining an NNID for this
purpose?

This feels more like pay-to-play than a solution to reduce unwanted SMS.
