  • description: I just recently went to a website to set up a new account, and it wouldn't let me proceed without giving them a cell number. Not a VoIP number, it demanded a real cell number, associated with a SIM. I actually don't have one, because I don't have a SIM in my phone. On top of that, there are many reasons why someone might not want to hand out their cell number to everyone. What should someone do in a situation like this? In this video I'll explain what you can do if someone asks for your cell number, and you don't want to give it to them. We'll talk about VoIP alternatives, and different methods for keeping your data protected. 00:00 Actually, I do not have a cell number 01:14 Activity Linking 02:26 Location Tracking 03:37 No Working Number Tactic 04:45 VoIP Tactic 06:12 Cell Number Rental Tactic 07:39 Pre-Paid SIM Tactic 08:16 Why Providers Block VoIP 10:57 The Cell to VoIP Trick 12:58 Dispense with the Formalities Stop handing out your real cell number by default. Use the alternatives when you can. Make minimal disclosure the norm. Small changes like this reduce your exposure, and they remind companies that access to you isn’t a right. It’s something you get to choose.
