Re: [tor-talk] registration for youtube, gmail over Tor - fake voicemail / sms anyone?

It's not a form of ID verification. We don't really care who owns the
number (or indeed, who you are at all).

It's just a throttle. It's harder to get 1000 phone numbers that don't
cluster and automate them, than it is to buy 1000 CAPTCHA solutions.
End of story.
