- pengaru 5y agoWhile this is certainly true in many places where SMS 2FA is being required, as others have noted you can just use TOTP oh github, see oathtool.
- marbu 5y agoAfaik github doesn't force you to reveal your phone number, you can setup OTP or U2F token instead.
- davidmichael 5y agoYou can use a security key or TOTP app instead of providing your phone number.
- emidln 5y agoGitHub does not have my phone number (although it's trivial to obtain). I use their TOPT 2FA.
