SMS "2fa" almost always makes things worse, you're better off never sharing your phone number with large companies like Apple.

I signed up for a new Apple account recently because I needed a developer account. As far as I could tell, it is no longer possible to sign up for an apple account without any 2fa.

Is it possible to do so anymore? I’m pretty sure Google and Apple both require it to create an account now.
