Companies know that people think like this nowadays, so they only require the phone number after you are already invested into the service. Twitter had this where they would allow you to not set phone initially, but then ban you some time l

Existence of this function is not surprising to me, I knew it existed. I assumed it was a “mark for manual review by moderator”, not “super downvote”.

You seem to be of opinion that this is a simple situation with clear cut options one of which is always safe while the other can bring harm. That is not the case, as usual with problems that cause so much discussion on the internet. If the
