Text message spam is currently harder to avoid than email spam.
That's why every-damn-thing demands your phone number now.

Freaking annoying. Was trying to create a dummy email account to test out some software for work and everything required a phone number and I just said screw it, let my boss know and dropped it.

Very annoying but I would have lost my one account of it didnt have a recovery # so w/e

The more annoying thing is Gmail asking for your phone # every time you log in from a different location
