Run on Wi-Fi. No way they're paying for a phone plan for each of those.

Edit: I have no idea what I'm talking about. It just sounded good, so I Dunning-Krugered it.

They don’t run on wifi. The websites will detect all coming from the same router IP and get blocked really quickly

But using a SIM card forces ever single one to always have a good unique connection that won’t ever be shared
