We have authenticator apps for just that, but they demand a phone number for "back-up"? You're right, it's bullshit. Tracking and selling the information collected to a real number in the hopes it wasn't a burner phone/number

This is why I refuse to use any social messenger app that requires a phone number: Facebook, Whatsapp, Telegram, Signal, Viber, etc.

The communications app BBMe never has and never will
