Huh. I've created a few ProtonMail accounts using their onion, and don't recall ever being asked for a mobile number. Most recently, a few weeks ago. But maybe this is a recent change. ProtonMail has become quite the go-to place for trolls and worse, so maybe they've gotten too many complaints. Try CockMail's onion, perhaps ;) > Now my question for privacy experts ...

They use real SIMs, hosted in the Philippines. > Regards > Stefan > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Gnupg-users mailing list > Gnupg-users@gnupg.org > http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users > _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
