[liberationtech] Could you help our lonely 98-year-old WW2 vet neighbor regain access to his Yahoo email?

nice idea but on the same has some issues/questions:

- JMP mention "Jabber is long-standing, widely-used, and 
privacy-focused." WHAAA!! , xmpp/jabber doesnt has any privacy within 
it. Thats why we use either OTR,OMEMO,PGP to encrypt messages and all of 
the clients available today dont use these encryption as built-in but 
instead as plug-in (except CoyIM which is dead project atm) and thats 
bring all of the problems of plug-ins issues like not functioning or 
disabled due to client upgrade ...etc (i can give examples if you like). 
why xmpp not secure? because xmpp made in a time of no security in mind 
times similar to IRC and other protocols.

- It needs a phone application? well i want to use a virtual phone 
number because i dont wanna have a cell phone or phone number at the 
first place. Why would i use another phone number while i own one? So 
better support Desktop application for GNU/Linux and BSD ...

- Mirror your website to Onion Hidden Services or I2P Eepsite (as you 
wish) for better privacy/security connection

- I assume your service available worldwide regardless from where the 
user is living, but he will get one of two countries numbers either US 
or Canada right? or he should be living in those countries as well?

- JMP twitter not active since 2 years https://nitter.net/JMP_chat (just 
saying...)

- (unrelated to product JMP but) your own website blocking Tor users: 
(just worries me..)

JMP effectively provides anonymous phone numbers, since we don't ask for any PII, we let you signup for/use it over Tor, and we accept anonymous payment methods like Monero.
