Don't all phones can call 911 even without a sim card?

    Yeah, most phones can call 112 or 911 without a SIM card, but apparently some networks still block them which is more than a little fucked up.

    All phones can, and all networks in the US and EU at least are legally required to accept emergency calls from any phone, if it's in their network or not, or if it has a simcard or not.

    The SIM card only acts to identify you, it is not technically necessary to place any call
