- a10c 6y agowhat mental gymnastics? Giving your phone number to facebook associates it with your account, who you know, your browsing habits etc. This does nothing of the sort.
- Mordisquitos 6y agoHow did Facebook know that it was a valid phone number, how did they associate it with your identity, and how did they know that number was really yours?
- wodenokoto 6y agoIt’s probably been a decade since I gave them my phone number, so I don’t remember the details. I believe they required it for the messenger app and did a 1 time SMS code for first time log in to messenger.
