That is essentially *why* BridgeDB used to require either Gmail or Yahoo,
because both email providers make accounts difficult to obtain via requiring
SMS verification.

I am never going to add SMS verification to BridgeDB. See my replies on the
rest of this thread for why I refuse to continue coding up broken, half-ass=
ed,
and non-privacy-preserving "solutions" to the verification-authentication
problem which ultimately do no more than sweep the problem under someone el=
se's
rug.
