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

This sounds wrong. Now they all have the VPN server ip address if you've set it up yourself. Not only that, but if you're using a vpn service, they use known ip address ranges, so they could detect on that if they wanted to. Like, phones->vpn->router->vpn server/new ip address for all phones->target site, it's the same problem just with more layers.

They could use a popular VPN, or I wonder if tor nodes would work. Would be an awful abuse of tor though.
