Not a bit. I just go grab an email address at minuteinbox.com

Then they get to send garbage to an email address I'll never use again.

I also see no point in giving anyone a phone number. Not that it will do them any good since I block anything not in my contacts l list.

    More and more, I'm finding that it isn't enough to just give one of my alias addresses. I'll make my account and then immediately end up locked out unless I give them my phone number (looking at you, Discord) or upload my ID/take some live selfies (looking at you, Slowly), or sometimes both (looking at you, LinkedIn).

    I miss the days when I could just browse and use the internet anonymously
