Gmail prompt to provide phone number sounds like a threat

    At this point I would say stay away from all Google services.

    I even moved away from Gmail. It’s very liberating.

      For all valid reasons for moving away from Google services, this just ISN’T one, as other comments already pointed out.

        I agree. But just wanted to say that plenty of email service providers do not require a phone number.

        Using authenticator for 2FA is also better than SMS.

      I’m slowly moving over to Proton and with the integration of SimpleLogin I’m starting to finally feel in control of my inbox.
