'The owner of this website (frankspeech.com) has banned the autonomous system number (ASN) your IP address is in (xxxxxx) from accessing this website.'
I was gonna go see why they would demand a phone number but cannot even do that.
Censored before even signing up... looks like yet another scam.
Yeah I know it's my VPN or 'other' mechanisms my machine employs.
My point is why would 'they' seek to data mine me before I even go there? Why would 'they' demand my location and IP address, or my phone number, or any personal data at all? IF they were honest they would not attempt to use me, sell me, trade me.
If you are 'in', would you post their Terms and license agreements plz? I betcha they admit to selling your data... crap like this is why I don't even have a cell phone.

Might be due to VPN or proxy use? I just used regular internet. A lot of websites block VPN/proxy IP addresses.
When I use VPN on mainstream shopping sites I usually get additional verification, like a captcha or 2fa, same with banking.

I'll probably join when it's publicly open to anyone on Monday, but I'm not giving them a phone number.
They probably blocked it due to anti-DDOS or anti-abuse measures.
Here's more on why not to input a mobile number online:
