You mean his ,MOB flag.
Indeed, there is no phonenumber, no IPv4 address and no IPv6 address,
i.e. most ,MOB systems are unconnectable.
The use of the ,MOB flag is a political deciscion, not a technical one.
It is of nu real usefull use.

Besides that, as a ZC he is filtering FTSC documented valid flags away,
but still leaves useless redundancy flags still in place,
both with his ERRORFLAGS programme he uses, that's also arbitrary.
I have proven that more than once. Search for old messages from me.
