  • Youtube discriminates against me and others

    From Jerry@21:1/5 to All on Fri Aug 13 10:53:02 2021
    I cannot set up a youtube access to comment etc with a gmail account
    (the only one allowed) since I do not have a cell phone to receive texts
    I cannot set up a gmail account not that I really want one because I
    will never use it !
    I use a library computer to access the internet.

    Youtube discriminates against the indigent !!!
    Typical elitists.

    It's a way of them ensuring they don't get spam accounts, or bad-actors.
    It is annoying, but there are ways around it.

    This made me chuckle. The phone part is easy to spoof if you know what
    you're doing. I'm sure you have an access to a computer since you're
    posting in this newsgroup. I do think you're also technically minded
    enough that you somehow found yourself here.

    Cheers
