Of course not. They'll do the same thing every other website does with a phone number, text you a security validation code.
BTW The site is up and running already. VIPs have access. Registration of other users to get access tomorrow has ready started. Don't know if there are any reports of problems and I have not tried to sign up (and don't intend to soon). |

Outside of the USA, standard landline phones don't work with SMS. The phone exchanges won't even process them. Don't know what it is like inside the USA currently, but when I was there in 2015, they didn't.
And I guess the two-tooth cretins could always get a burner instead of their next meth hit. What they are REALLY doing is number harvesting. Nothing new there. Text PILLOW to 800-123-456. |

You're short one digit there skippy.
And jeez... even I don't mis-stereotype my rural brethren that badly, and I'm living practically among them (physically, not politically). As an example... Mike's desired demographic is out "rollin' coal" in their lifted diesel trucks, not mining the stuff in West Virginia. They have cell phones. . So do the coal miners for that matter. |

I can get a burner chip in my regular phone for less than ten bucks to set up a bad faith account like that. Then once set up give the chip to someone after burning up the credit on it.
I keep some used phones around as spares too, could use them. |

OK, then.
Some Yank explained to me years ago that the phone number 123-456-7890 is real. Dial it and some poor bastard answers. Then again, he could have been pulling my leg, what would I know. I also live among rural brethren. Some of them are dim enough to not be allowed knives and forks yet for fear of self-amputation. But most of them are high-tech farmers. You mentioned coal drivers as part of Pillow-twat's demographic. I doubt there are 10 million coal drivers in the USA. |

The website for Frankspeech just contains a video of Lindell ranting, possibly taken from his Absolute Proof video.

Sign up page, and promising to be up and running 8 AM CT today.
ETA: Yesterday I assumed CT was a time zone. Maybe not. |

It will be up and running . . . in two weeks. Just in time for the reveal of the Republican health-care plan, the completion party for the border wall, and the return to Kansas of the Wizard of Oz.

"He claims that the site isn’t working because it’s under attack. And not just any attack, “the biggest attack ever.” Lindell is a ******* liar. When a site is under attack, high-resource functions such as loading images and playing video are among the first things to crash. Even a moderate level of attack would impact that video - and it seems to play perfectly fine. Someone in this thread predicted he would claim an attack if his site didn't work. |

The live video feed is now being prank-called. Here's one where Mr. Lindell puts the mike up to his phone while an idiot who claimed to be Donald Trump is plugging a website.

The Frank's Peach site is working perfectly; there are no attacks. It is 100% First Amendment abiding free speech...for Lindell. That's all he ever wanted - somewhere he could pour out his insane drivel without pesky journalists interrupting him or walking out on him or having him cut off mid rant. The rest of you really don't count.

We need Lily Tomlin back on the exchange because you've got some wires crossed.
I don't read minds, so if you write (800) 123-456, I don't jump to thinking you meant (123) 456-7890 (not real, btw). And I was pretty clear Mike doesn't care about the ~20,000 coal miners and their families. He wants numbers, eyeballs for the ad revenue. He wants those high tech farmers and the tens and tens of millions of modern rural and suburban conservatives, many of whom listen to new country on their Sirius/XM sat radios and argue over iPhone vs. Android just like the rest of the world. They won't be tripped up trying to receive an SMS. You reversed that. And he doesn't care how safe they aren't with the cutlery. |
