Pinephone on Cricket Wireless (USA) no service
#29
While I see where you are coming from Google Voice is actually one of the few Google products that really can protect your privacy, even from Google. I work on the back end of Voice and Fi which has it's own back end now but used Voice until a few months ago. If you used a background investigation using your AT&T number because of it's history and links to you you can find out everything there is about you. Your address, your neighbors and your family. It's like a social security number. If you search a Google Voice number you won't find out much. Google blocks it somehow. While you have to have a Gmail you don't have to use it.

Don't take that too personally KC9UDX. Google Voice is only supposed to be available in the US and scammers and people outside the US were using the free FreedomPop plan to get Google Voice numbers so Google blocked it. GV isn't going anywhere. I have had a GV number for 12 years.
