Thanks. I think I'll remove my phone number as a backup option.

  Google periodically prompts me on login to add my cell phone number to increase my account's security. I think someone confused about what "increase" means. (And this is all the more surprising because in general I see all sorts of parts of Google making great end-user security decisions.)

    It probably increases security for the average user, but decreases it for a targeted user.
