not to mention living in a time you didn't need an email to get a driver's license. heck in brazil, southafrica and some parts of india you cannot even get one without a freaking whatsapp (which you cannot get without a mobile phone account (which you cannot get without a bank account (which...)))

the other day i also had to take a selfie in a government owned app which required a phone with active google play store service, to allow me to see my own data, with no alternative method (being implemented so they say)

Ugh. Sorry to hear that, what a nightmare. First world countries tend to be better in this respect. I'm in the UK, and the worst that I've seen is that you need a phone to receive text messages for 2FA from the bank. What if you're abroad and can't receive those text messages??
