Just discovered that not only does yahoo not let you create an email without a phone number, but they "don't support" google voice numbers.

I just want to be anonymous enough that some blue-haired landwhale admin at reddit or some other sjw infested company can't try to get me fired for wrongthink. I'm sure my data at my isp is not safe, I'm sure my data at reddit is not safe, and I'm sure my data at google is not safe - and it's not likely I'd have any legal recourse if some social justice psychopath managed to get me fired.

Same here man. I've been censoring myself for years now on most platforms especially the big ones. I work in a field where I could easily be fired for enough rumors (mental health field, with juveniles). Luckily I saw this coming in the times of the Snowden revelations, so well before the cancelling truly began.

Either I'm anonymous, or I can't really speak on many subjects. It is simply too dangerous now. For example: I've smoked weed for 20+ years. That alone could get me fired possibly where I am. I'm not going to test it.

Anyone who thinks you can have honest conversations without anonymity is dreaming the sweet dream of perpetual delusion.
