Fuck you, because of this functionality I was actually able to detect that a bunch of script kiddie russians had gotten hold of my password from the LinkedIn leak a couple of months ago, and were able to prevent them from hijacking my Google account (and remind myself to change my password on a bunch of other sites)

Use the recovery email then you turbo autist
>>57343346
I just use the option where I tap Yes on my phone.

Just because your dumbass cant monotor your accounts and youre actually retarded enough to use the same password everwhere, does not mean we should have to give out our personal information to send a fucking email.

Well, yes. I don't want Oleg and Igorr to
1) be able to track my every position using Google Maps API and read my emails and hangout messages
and
2) be able to impersonate me by sending emails from my Gmail account or send fake hangout messages
>>57343636
If you don't want to give personal info to Google, then why did you type in your fucking phone number?
>>57343346

how old are you?

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.
>>57343679
I didnt. You assume I am op.
I needed to make an email yesterday and couldnt because the fucking jews at google want to log my number.
>visiting your email account from a new device requires authentication
>thinking Google should let everything in your IP range access your email
What the fuck are you complaining about?

MUH PRIVACY!!!!!
>>57343887
Don't use Gmail for throw away accounts.

Quotes from Franklin does not really apply here. Protecting your identity is a right, and is not equivalent to giving up your liberty.

buy old shitty samsung

no harm done
u dont need to enter phone number HEHEHEHE
Why would you even need a Google account, anyways?
I use public computers, i just want to use google to quickly use docs or drive or as a throwaway email. i dont want to give them my fucking phone number every time I want to log on.
>>57343346
Google doesn't have my phone number and never will. GMail and the rest still all work fine.
>>57344233
It doesnt ask you to "verify your account" on every single computer you go to? I dont use VPN's either
>>57344258
Nope. Sometimes it asks for my phone number to set up 2FA, but I can just ignore that. The only way you'd get a message like in OP's is if you set up 2FA.
