Consumer VoIP providers are often used as a way to obtain a secondary phone number or multiple phone numbers without providing identifying information. Phone numbers are commonly used by internet services to uniquely identify you, so using the same number between every service is a fingerprinting tactic service providers can use to track you. It is also often more challenging for most people to change their "primary" phone number, so using a secondary VoIP number with less important services and contacts can save you a huge hassle when that secondary phone number is compromised. +It is important to note that VoIP in general is not anonymous or particularly secure.
