It's just to make an account. It's not going to actually display your number. Just make a separate Google account and use that.

The Google account seems unnecessary if you're attaching a number bc you could just sign up using only the number.

Anyway, I think I'm going to stick with the account I made using a dud gmail address and cope with being unable to post or comment anything
