    Truth be told... cell phone numbers are not safe!
    I don't know about other countries, but in Brazil, carriers cancel lines and resell the numbers.
    Linking verification or account security to cell phone numbers, which can change hands at any time, is not safe at all.
    I support using only email, and if necessary, a 2FA app from Twitch, but eliminating the use of SMS.
    I'm having a problem like this right now... I didn't receive the SMS, and after a while I asked again. And now it says that too many SMS have already been sent and asks me to try again later... but this message has been displayed for over 4 hours...
    And guess what... the SMS all arrived at once... and now I can't even try to use the last number because it doesn't even open the box to enter it...
    It's really unsustainable...
