Why Twitter/X blocks VoIP and virtual numbers
Twitter/X aggressively blocks VoIP numbers as part of anti-bot measures implemented under Elon Musk's ownership. Google Voice and similar services are explicitly rejected.
- •Google Voice numbers "abruptly stopped receiving 2FA codes" in late 2022
- •Error: "We cannot currently register this phone number"
- •Error: "This phone number can't be registered. Try signing up with email instead"
- •VoIP classified as "wireline"—flagged and blocked automatically
