Fucking hate that shit. And the ones that absolutely require the phone number just to REGISTER.

And of course Google shitheads

Well there is your problem. Stop using them, and making yourself a cuck in the process. Your life would be perfectly fine without them.
Buy a YubiKey.

They don't require phone numbers for 2fa. They require it so they can track and spy on you.

Yes, for 2fa they only need the secret key, phone is completely irrelevant. If they want to spy or not I don't know

Haven't read into it, how can it be used for TOTP 2fa?
>>54885760
They do it pretty much because customer preferences are valuable in this day and age.
Knowing what products you tweet about = $$$ for them
