Just this morning I still held cautious respect for google. They've always been competent enough to not get in my way, despite being botnet.
But now I'm locked out of one of my email accounts. Pic related is what comes up when I enter the correct email and password. There is no phone or email associated with this account because I'm not a fucking retard who ties all his accounts together because he can't generate and remember strong passwords.
I've done nothing wrong yet google is able to outright cripple my operations without telling me what they have a problem with. This email happens to be the one I use for domain registration and hosting.
When did things get so bad? When did every fucking website require you to have an account using a bloated, outdated, and frankly broken protocol which is hard if not impossible (depending on isp) to host yourself?
In any case, google can die in a fire. What do I use for email now, Sup Forums?

>I'm not a fucking retard who ties all his accounts together Yet you're too retarded to read english
Juan Fisher
how do you figure
Gabriel Moore
I've already tried all the options on that page.
Plus, it's not ok for it to be asking me for a phone number for verification when there never was a phone number associated with the account before.
Nathaniel Young
>There is no phone or email associated with this account
Google aren't claiming there is. Loosen your underpants elastic and reread what they say.
Bentley Moore
This dialog doesn't associate the number you enter with your account. It's a one time usage.
Benjamin Kelly
Work on your reading comprehension
Carson Taylor
You're making about as much sense as google is. Please tell me, how does this phone number process do anything to verify I am the owner of the account?
Cameron Parker
>try another way to sign in >or give the botnet your # to text and confirm
It's not hard. It's not saying you have a phone tied to it, it's saying use your phone to authenticate.
Owen Peterson
Work on your general comprehension.

Brody Murphy

Google is just trying to verify you're in the country you set up the account in. It's really not that difficult of a concept. Ex: they send a text to a number that's in the UK you receive and give them the code. You're obviously in the UK.
Asher Gray
Yeah, and why?
Why would it need anything else than the login and password? Where does it say that it will arbitrarily try to trick you into giving up your phone number and lock you out of your account for no reason?
Only idiots use gmail now.
Nathan Jones
I guess they don't trust my IP?
Somewhat unrelated, there was isp outages last night meaning my IP might have changed, possibly triggering this.
Thomas Torres
This thing happened to me too just recently. I've tried to confirm its me by using another email, the jews sent the email code, I've put it in but it said that it can't verify me.
I am locked out of my account and there is no way to unlock it without a cell phone number. Fuck google.
Nathan Morgan
People don't care about privacy.
I would never give my phone number to jewgle.
Mason Harris
I thought about giving yik yak a try this week. Install the app, the very first thing they ask for is my mobile number.
Apparently, they *need* it.
I miss the old internet.
Jonathan Miller
hold up I'm going to try a google voice number
Ian Rivera
It worked
Julian Hernandez
Are you retarded, that screen isn't asking for a phone number associated with your account. It's just asking you for a phone number so they can verify it's not some sort of bot or something. I've had this happen when I logged into my account through a vpn.
Elijah Gonzalez
awww, cute.
you're too much of a little bitch to get rid of google
Logan Johnson
I still want to get away from this garbage. How does Sup Forums do email reliably without botnet?
Cooper Martin
>hi, this is google! >we think youre account might be compromised! >In order to access that account, you have to give us a cellphone number >because no criminal would do that, only the legitimate owner …
fuck. so far, they only locked me out and told me to log in via a webbrowser when I'm travelling and are on a new network or on hotel wifi. Every fucking time
Hopped over the border to the next country? >locked out Logged in some shitty hotel wifi >locked out new carrier? >locked out new hotel? >locked out starbucks wifi? >locked out aiport wifi? >locked out
I can't really take them serious as anything besides a shitmailing provider.

stop right there kiddo.
you are a fucking retard.
>This email happens to be the one I use for domain registration and hosting.
lol
a huge fucking retard
Matthew Rogers
this is normal if you work with many VPS/VPN connections, i.e. have lots of IP's as well as sandboxed environments such as Tor or VM's.
Your "habits" are too unpredictable, it's obvious that a company that operates through knowing a lot of about their customers dislikes that.
Jackson Jackson
They will obviously link the number with the account to prevent it from being used for 200 other accounts, otherwise a bot could just use one number for multiple accounts anyways
Brandon Baker
>hurr durr ur returd >too afraid to say why
any advice on what to use that works well and isn't botnet?
Dylan Lewis
You:
HELP HELP OH GOD THE GOOGLE FUCKING IS LACKIN ME OUTAA MY STAFF!!!!@!! FUCKKC MOMOOMMMMMHELP

>When did things get so bad? a few years ago. It started with not being able to make a new email with any major company without giving them your phonenumber. The turn it off every so often just to stay relevant and prevent an upraising.
Google has me locked out of a few accounts right now.
Also yahoo is demanding my brother respond to a phone number he hasnt had in 15 years.
Ian Roberts
for email?
cock.li
Looks retarded, is managed by a overly-secure NEET but does the job. If you want something semi-serious you'll have to host yourself.
Austin Collins
do I have to spell it out for you you braindead cunt?
If you're using an email for important shit you have to have a secondary email / phone for account recovery.
Robert Adams

They do that now with every account. I've made 2 throwaway crap address recently and both times after I create it log out and try to login "Suspicious Activity Verify ID"

Not retarded enough to tie accounts together but retarded enough to get cucked out of an email lmao

Terrorists use gmail drafts to communicate, they want your phone number to protect you from multiple people signing in and using the account.
Leo Diaz
the only stupid thing I've done here is try to speak straight with a bunch of shitposters Sup Forums isn't what it used to be

Eli Robinson
Op they are checking to see if it's a bottle trying to log in. Maybe your """pass got leaked""" and they're trying to protect you with tracking which ones phone use for the NSA and selling the data to advertisers
