How hard is it to implement email verification?
check your permissions, & then check, on google, what those perms allow…
IF you’re in Android, not iPhone, THEN there is nothing you can do to block google from knowing your phone-number.
Whether iPhone users truly have privacy from google…
i wouldn’t bet much on that…
As former mafia man ( Firenzese, or something ) said:
once they’ve got enough all-pervading leverage on you, then you cannot win: the leverage locks.
I’m misphrasing it, and he was speaking about the mob, but the principle is true, globally not only in the context he was speaking.
All of surveillance-capitalism is rooted in putting the subjects/serfs in a panopticon, & never letting them out, squeezing them all until the individuals die, being replaced by new inmates, but the population-as-a-whole never would be tolerated to escape…
Perfect industrialized parasitism.
sorry about the bitterness: i’m an old geek & had some idea of what good could be done, world-wide, with tech…
DarkTriad’s incorporated-feudalism proved it won, totally, easily.

My Android devices have never been logged into Google, and the tablet I’m posting from has no SIM card, so it has no phone number.
They have no record of a phone number for me, because I’ve never signed into Google on any active Android device.
Edit: I also have Google Play and Services, and most other Google apps disabled. FOSS for the win! They really don’t have any phone number for me.
