TL;DR, my computer broke because I spilled water onto it. I got a new phone recently and my number was changed, so I couldn’t use that to log back in with 2-step verification, and I tried send it to my alternate email instead. It says I have to “wait 24 hours” but I never get the fucking verification email so apparently I have lost my email account and everything attached to it.
I agree that the digital life deserves rights for certain services like email, social network site, etc. But the line is pretty thin between rights and rights to anonymity.
