Damn, is it really like that now? I created my accounts for IG, Google, Discord, years ago and without a number. I refuse to provide it when they ask now and never had an issue.
Hello. I sometimes receive images in HEIC format and I use an app to convert them to JPG. However I realized that this app uploads the images and makes the conversion in the cloud, so I stopped using it....

Do you utilize a dedicated AV like Bitdefender when sailing? Or do you still trust Windows Defender to take care of the higher risk while doing this?
