Microsoft might start demanding your phone number
 
Always asking for a little more personal information


Software giant Microsoft is getting a little stalkerish and is getting more persistent about asking for your phone number.

For a while, now the nerds at various Silicon Valley technology companies have been asking for you to hand over your phone number for "security reasons". There is no reason for this to happen of course, and it does put you in the exposed position of not knowing where that number is going to be used. Even if Microsoft does not use the number to cold call you at all hours for "must have deals" like those idiots at Vodafone, there is no guarantee that your phone number will not fall into the wrong hands.
