Seems like discord is asking people to verify their accounts with phone numbers nowadays. I guess I won't be using it anymore? :🤷

Oh yeah, it's definitely that. For sure. Your behavior is more similar to the < 0.1% of users who do bad shit than the 99.9% who simply install the app and play games or chat with friends. You are a casualty of war, so to speak. Honestly, I don't blame discord, they have to secure their platform. I blame the shitheads who make this crap necessary by trying to hide their illegal activity using the same methods as the people like yourself who just want privacy
