Shit, I get banned by their shitty ML algos when I do comply with their ToS. I don't think most people care about the risk of having to create new accounts, since they're already forced to do so already.
Ordinarily I'd agree, but for now, WhatsApp is tied to your phone number. I'm not sure if you can use some kind of service to create alias numbers but for many people, that's a big blocker when it comes to making another account following any kind of infraction.
I don't think meta would shift in requiring a phone number per account either,
Oh, I don't have a phone number. I just use a temp one online.
That works. Which service do you use ooc?
Juice SIM or MoneroSMS. It doesn't work, though. Only tried once, but the account was banned a few hours after creation :(
