Personally I think Apple and Google are much more of a threat to everyone's privacy,  BUT  I do not see anyone complaining about them.

PayPal does stand up for your rights as a purchaser,  if you need help with a refund, etc...  So that makes it necessary for them to know "what" you purchased.

  BUT  I do also agree that it should be a matter of choice,  so A Second or Third method of payment would please more customers.

MYSELF,  I only make online purchases with PayPal   .....  BUT  You do deserve the right to make your own choice ...

I can buy Pine64 products without Apple or Google.
No need to bring them into this thread.
I fully agree they are a threat to our privacy, but that doesn't mean that Paypal isn't a threat to our privacy either.

I never linked a credit card to Paypal, nor authorised automatic transfers from another account, so I don't care about two factor authorisation.
So why is Paypal forcing me to use a cell phone with Paypal?
There is absolutely no need for them to know my phone number, when they only need to know what I purchased from which company.
