I didn’t sign into Facebook for 2-3 years and when I tried, despite having the same email and using the linked IG accounts, they demanded my drivers license. Uh, no way in hell I’ll ever do that, so guess I’m not signing into stupid Facebook.

Curious if you give Discord your phone number?

I haven’t used discord but I’m sure I’ve supplied plenty of personally identifiable information to other companies.

I don't but I am aware that it can be used to identify you, as well as from other people if they give open access to their contacts. They only have my email.
