Hm, I'm sensing a web service that uses twilio to provide short-term
SMS+voice access for this reason. It could even offer a tor hidden service.

Of course this seems like a good way to get all of Twilio's number pool
blacklisted. Though, perhaps that would not be possible? Maybe that
number pool is too large, or unknown, or used by too many others?

Hm, what about a webapp, that spinned up an ephemeral VPN on Amazon's
EC2 for several minutes? Surely EC2 can't be blacklisted?

Just some ideas.
