The phone number is the best way to ID user across different sources of data. Facebook created datapoints for those who aren't even on Facebook, but are in some users' phonebooks. In my country you get a SIM-card only with your documents, so alphabet agencies have an even better idea who are you on the web.

It's all just scam that pushed without any conaideration for our convinience.
