What about phone numbers? Can't even make a Twitter or Google account without coughing up a phone number.

+1 Even after sign-ing up it requires me to authenticate every now and then (may be because I am using only twitter web).

My 10 year old gmail account has no associated phone number. Maybe it's valuable now. It's the only thing I use at all that is a Google product, and I'm always near deleting the entire account but it's just so convenient (Read, I've been lazy)
