technology and computing emailWhy is twitter asking for my phone number?
Twitter does not require new users to provide a phone number when they sign up — and so a user who was banned, and decided to create a new account, could do so even if they had harassed users previously. This move doesn't resolve Twitter's whack-a-mole troll problem entirely.
Moreover, can you have a twitter account without a phone number?
Yes, creating an account without a phone number is easy, described in other posts. It involves selecting email instead of phone.
Moreover, how do you bypass twitter phone number?
Bypass the Twitter Phone Verification With Google Voice
- To use Google Voice with your smartphone or tablet, link its phone number to your account.
- Google Voice will then call or text you to confirm your identity.
- Take that local number and go back to Twitter and enter it.
When you upload your contacts to your account, we can help you find people you may know on Twitter. Then you'll be able to find and follow contacts who have allowed other people to find them by their email address or phone number.
