Why does an account provider need a snail-address and phone-number? Usually
for billing purposes. However, this isn't necessary for accounts paid with
ECash. I believe C2.org already offers non-dialup access accounts, paid for
with ECash, that do not require a valid snail-address or phone-number. I am
sure that there will be many more to come.
