They are worried (as I understand it) 1) that it could be an ITU end run to grab back numbering, 2) it could be abused by bad actors such as repressive governments who want to use it for digital id.

Based on seemingly cyclical statements of this nature, I've been waiting for the ITU to impose GOSIP or whatever on us for the last ~30 years or so - but so far, nothing much has happened in that regard.

Is there actually a reason to suspect that this time it will be any different?
