minus-square@icelimit@lemmy.mllinkfedilink0•edit-25 months agoBut proton doesn’t need a phone number? You can just do a captcha. I would never use an email that asks for a phone number. Or even a phone.
minus-squareDJ Putlerlinkfedilink0•edit-25 months agoThey began demanding my phone number after I signed up without it. Not sure why. Was years ago tho That’s the same trick discord pulls btw it’s shady
minus-square@matron1049@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilink0•5 months agoThey want your IP or your phone. Use a VPN IP or TOR and they’ll require a phone number. That’s been my experience at least. I don’t trust them.
minus-square@icelimit@lemmy.mllinkfedilink0•edit-25 months agoHmm. That’s not been my experience. I’ve been using proton with VPN with no issue. But yes, as you say, if that’s your experience, it’s shady. I would stay away from them were I in your shoes.
