I had a business call with a colleague in Karachi, Pakistan last night. The call lasted 15 minutes. We spoke about organizations that are working on infrastructure issues in urban areas. Simple.
This morning I received a text message from my phone company: "You have made a call to ISD CODE 0092 Code.We urge you to exercise caution when calling unknown number and sharing personal details as it can be misused."
Pakistan's country code is 92. I'm curious as to whether this message is government-mandated. Is this for my protection? Or is this to prevent would be terrorists from using Airtel's cell network for its dealings?
Odd, no?
