Don't forget to give up your privacy as they'll want your phone number and will record all voice-chat.

 

If you're not willing to give your phone number, you can't play the game. Good ol' messed up, greedy Blizzard-Activision.

Requiring phone numbers has been standard in serious ranked games for many years, Counter Strike does it, Dota 2 does it, WoW/Blizzard games require it too. Unlike in backwards lands USA, phone numbers/sim cards are worth pennies in other countries so it's mostly been security theater to try and stop bots, boosting and smurfing. You do not privacy, you have never had privacy, there have been so many breaches just in the past 5 years alone your data is out there, it's just a matter of time before something happens to it.

 

If they were greedy they would've charged you $70 again for this game btw.

That procedure is not exclusive to Blizzard, many companies use this, greedy most companies are but If they really were that greedy they could have charged for the game but instead it's free to play, so much sensationalism around here.

Literally phone number is for 2FA. Do you not do 2FA on almost all other services? Also they record the past 5-10 minutes of voice chat and then it gets deleted. It's so that if someone is being toxic to you, you can report them, and they will look over a text transcript that the voice read typed out. PSN does the literal same thing and so does Minecraft.

Phone number is for PC players or brand new accounts to prevent hacking or smurfing, and recording voice chat is to be able to ban toxic or abusive players. I fail to see how either of those are bad things.
